Hi there!
I'm doing a research project for grad. school where I'm looking at children's picture books written about the Holocaust. I'm approaching it from an historiography pov (i.e. how the history has been told through these books, what's being said/not said, whose pov is it, etc.).
I'm posting here for two purposes:
1) If anyone has any recommendations for picture books about the Holocaust, and
2) I'm also curious about who is the intended audience for these books and how educators/families/religious leaders have used them. So you have every used Holocaust books in your preschool, prekindergarten, or kindergarten classroom, I would love to hear from you here about the experience and, if you're willing, ask you some additional questions 1 on 1. Or if you've used them in settings outside the traditional classroom (home, youth group, church/synagogue groups, etc.), I would also appreciate your input.
Thank you in advance,
Leah
