Amazing Story, Very educatioanl,
By
This review is from: Go My Son: A Young Jewish Refugee's Story of Survival (Hardcover)
It has been many years since I last read this book. I first read it when I was 14 years old and I still remember much of the story. I got the book as a gift from my grandmother who then on my advice read and loved the book as well. This book is good for all ages. This true story tops many best selling novels. The book is written so well that the reader is drawn into the story feeling that he is there with Chaim facing the same dangers. From an educational perspective many geographical and historical lessons are built into the book. May Chaim's memory and story be a blessing for us all.

incredible! -couldn't put it down tilI finished !,
By Philip Skaist (San Francisco, CA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Go My Son: A Young Jewish Refugee's Story of Survival (Hardcover)
Chaim Shapiro tells the incredible story of his escape from first Nazi then Communist occupied Poland. He manages to get into and out of all types of situations, while keeping us laughing with his view of ww2 era Soviet Union.As a sixteen year old Jew, he inspires us with his loyalty in spirit and practice to his religion. Being an avid reader of ww2 era- writings, I have to say that this tops the list.I'm just surprised that this isn't a best seller!

A Great Loss , A Lasting Memorial,
By
This review is from: Go My Son: A Young Jewish Refugee's Story of Survival (Hardcover)
Chaim Shapiro's inspiring book is a lasting legacy and wonderful memorial to the author, who unfortunately passed away this autumn, and the European Jewish communities of WWII. Courage and faith combine in this highly recommended, true adventure story of great historical importance.
