About this audiobook

A young Jewish boy and his siblings fleeing a world destroyed by hate. A notoriously cruel anti-Semite hunting for Jews. Why did this murderer risk his own life to save these children? An eleven-year-old boy and his siblings fight for survival after the evil of the Nazi regime descends upon Poland. Time after time, they miraculously escape certain death as the murderous fascists attempt to make their hometown of Tluste Judenrein. Their luck seems to have run out when the Germans order to liquidate their work camp. Unexpected help comes from Timush, a man known for his terrible deeds against the Jews. After hearing their mother shout to him in a desperate plea, "Save my children!" as she is marched to her execution, Timush amazingly risks his own life to make sure they survive. Save my Children is the true story of the transformation of a man once filled with hate and violence who made the ultimate sacrifice to save the people he once sought to kill. A unique story inspiring hope that hatred can be overcome.
