Irena's Children: A True Story of Courage, Young Readers Edition

"Can you personally guarantee she'll be safe?" No, that was not a promise Irena, nor anyone could make in wartime Poland. She couldn't even promise that she and the child would make it past the Nazi guards and beyond the walls of the ghetto that day. But Irena vowed she would risk her life trying. This young readers edition of Irena's Children tells the incredible untold story of Irena Sendler--the woman who took staggering risks to save 2,500 children from death and deportation in Nazi-occupied Poland during World War II.
