Remember! Tell The World!
The Story of a Hidden Child Survivor of Transnistria
By Leah Kaufman / Sheina Medwed
Description:
English edition of Live! Remember! Tell the World!
Leah Kaufman was nine years old when the Romanian Jews were driven
on a death march to Transnistria, a frigid area with hardly any
food, shelter, or human decency. Somehow, she lived - and lived
with her Judaism intact! |

As a young
orphan, all alone, she kept Pesach and Yom Kippur, and
remained faithful to her parents’ faith in HaShem and love of
Judaism. She retained her humanity after a series of harrowing
experiences and miraculous rescues that would have destroyed
a less resourceful, less pure person.
When the War was over, the memories of her past lay dormant
inside her for fifty years, while she put together a new life
in Canada and raised a fine Jewish family. But then she
remembered her legacy, her mother's constant charge to her
during the last weeks of her life: "Leah, you must live! You
must remember! You must tell the world!"
She has been telling it ever since. She speaks for those who
are forever silenced. Her message of triumph, hope, and
continuity brings pride to her audiences and inspires them to
return to the Judaism of their grandparents. It's a gripping
story, an uplifting story, a story that makes us marvel at the
greatness of the Jewish spirit that enabled a young girl all
alone in the world to persevere and triumph.
Leah Kaufman has spent many years telling the tale to
audiences all over the world; and with Sheina Medwed as her
collaborator, she tells it in this marvelous book with flair
and sensitivity. When we read it, we see why thousands of
listeners have been mesmerized by her story, why audiences of
every type have taken Leah Kaufman and Sheina Medwed to their
hearts. |

a better person?' Thank you for being such an inspiration!"
This is a book that will be treasured, admired, and shared -
and remembered! |
