Résumé
This young readers' edition tells the remarkable story, largely forgotten until now, of the young Jewish women who became resistance fighters against the Nazis during World War II. It has already been optioned by Steven Spielberg for a major motion picture. As their communities were being destroyed, groups of Jewish women and teenage girls across Poland began transforming Jewish youth groups into resistance factions.
These "ghetto girls" helped build systems of underground bunkers, paid off the Gestapo, and bombed German train lines. At the center of the book is eighteen-year-old Renia Kukielka, who traveled across her war-torn country as a weapons smuggler and messenger. Other women who joined the cause served as armed fighters, spies, and saboteurs, all risking their lives for their missions. Never before chronicled in full, this is the incredible account of the strong Jewish women who fought back against the seemingly unstoppable Nazi regime.
It follows the women through arrests, internment, and for a lucky few, into the late 20th century and beyond. It also includes a section of black-and-white photos, so that readers can see firsthand the extraordinary women who bravely fought for their freedom in the face of overwhelming odds. Based on extensive research and forgotten testimonies, this gripping book reveals: The Ghetto Girls: How groups of teenage girls and young women in Poland transformed youth groups into secret resistance factions, fighting back when no one else would.
True Stories of Courage: Follows real-life heroes like Renia Kukielka, an eighteen-year-old weapons smuggler, and other women who served as armed fighters, spies, and saboteurs. The Warsaw Ghetto Uprising: An inside look at one of the most significant acts of Jewish rebellion, detailing the bravery of the women who helped lead the fight. Meticulously Researched History: Includes a section of black-and-white photos so readers can see the faces of these extraordinary women, plus extensive source notes and a glossary.
