The Nazis killed my family but I decided not to hate

Available for over a year

When Peter Lantos was five years old, he and his parents were deported from Hungary and taken to Bergen-Belsen concentration camp. He was among one of the only survivors in his family, 21 of whom were murdered for being Jewish. Instead of feeling hatred towards the Nazis Peter decided to return to Germany the first opportunity he had. Peter has written a book aimed at children detailing his experiences, told from the perspective of a five-year-old. It is called The Boy Who Didn't Want To Die.
