It is 1941. Hedy and her family are Jewish, and the Jew-hating Nazi
party is rising. Hedy's family is no longer safe in their home in
Hungary. They decide to flee to America, but because of their
circumstances, sixteen-year-old Hedy must make her way through Europe
alone. Will luck be with her? Will she be brave? Join Hedy on her
journey-where she encounters good fortune and misfortune, a kind helper
and cruel soldiers, a reunion and a tragedy-and discover how Hedy is
both lucky and brave. Hedy's Journey adds an important voice to the
canon of Holocaust stories, and her courage will make a lasting impact
on young readers.
