We are reading a book called Mrs. Katz & Tush by Patricia Polpcca.  It refers to
Poland where Mrs. Katz lived during the Holocaust.  She called it a very, very
bad time.  The children in my class have many questions about that time in
history.  The class is a culturally diverse group.  What was it like to live in
Poland or anywhere in Europe at that time for children?  The children are in
3rd. and 4th. grade. There is a boy in the story who is an Africian American and
they become more than friends.  He learns a lot about being Jewish and they
adopt each other.  Excellent book.  I look forward to your answers.
                                Sincerely,
                                Lenore Fleishman
