"Tell Them We Remember" offers a sensitive yet unflinching look at the Holocaust, drawing on the extensive collection of the United States Holocaust Memorial Museum. It presents the historical context of Nazi rule and its impact on daily life for innocent people across Europe, with a particular focus on the experiences of children and teenagers. Through excerpts from "identity cards" and powerful images, the book highlights the stories of young victims, including Jewish, Roma, disabled, and Polish Catholic children, who were targeted simply for who they were. The narrative emphasizes the importance of remembering these stories to prevent future atrocities, making it a crucial resource for introducing this complex history to young readers.
