"Trapped Inside the Story" Bargain Kindle Books
Brief of "Trapped Inside the Story" Kindle Book :The year: 1941. The city: Lvov, Poland. The fear level: palpable. To be Jewish in this time and place is to be the prey; the hunted. Entire families disappeared overnight never to be seen again. Hitler's regime hijacked and took possession of homes and businesses, leaving others penniless. Nazi soldiers roamed the streets, mercilessly rounding up innocent civilians. This was the harsh reality Jewish families faced in Poland during the Holocaust. This was no place for a child to fend for herself and avoid certain death. While museums and historians have carefully documented the Holocaust atrocities, one of the most harrowing descriptions of the Nazi occupation comes from the voice of a child, Sonya Hebenstreit. Sonya lost her entire family in a six-month period and was forced to rely on her wits and instincts to stay alive during one of the darkest eras of human history. Cohen chronicles Sonya's struggle to survive in her new book, Trapped Inside the Story.

A must read for middle school onBy Deborah E. Siegel
This was a kindle book I couldn't put down. There were times when I felt that I was right next to Soyna/Nomi as she lost loved one after another. Her fear and confusion, as well as her bravery and ingenuity, were so well conveyed that her world seemed right there in front of me. Few kindle books I've read have made the Holocaust experience so real and terrifying. Leslie Cohen's telling of the story is vivid and touching. Highly recommended for middle school and older, as well as for parents.

Trapped Inside The Story -- and Then SomeBy Lawrence G. Blasko
Leslie Cohen's "Trapped Inside The Story" tells how Sonya Hebenstreit survived -- barely -- the horror that was visited upon the Jews of Lvov, Poland, under Russian and German occupation.
It's a biography written in the first person that literally traps the reader who has the good fortune to pick it up, and discovers a narrative so compelling that it's impossible to put down. Now far removed from Europe before and during World War II, many of us have only a superficial understanding of what it took to survive as a child when war and Nazi inhumanity decimated families and forced grade-school students to skills and horros far beyond their year.
Leslie Cohen's kindle book make it vivid and is a compelling addition to the literature of human struggle in the time when the pits of hell opened and devils spewed forth in jackboots.

Vivid VignettesBy Cheryl Clark
I absolutely loved this kindle book. I could hardly put it down and had it read
in 3 days. Even though I have read some children's diary
entries from the Holocaust, this kindle book gave me a new perspective on their
experiences. Hearing Sonya's own reasoning and conclusions about things that were happening to her was my favorite part. Watching her having to make decisions as an inexperienced child deprived of adult protection really touched me.
