THE TRAIN THAT TOOK YOU AWAY
Esther Spielman knows that her life has changed forever. As the Nazis have come into power she knows that she must do everything possible to keep her family safe.
Her father and husband are murdered and now her only option is to send her young son, Sascha away for his safety. Her heart breaks and her tears flow as the train disappears. How will she ever survive this horrible time?
As the Nazis invade her home, they take what little she has left, and then they take her. She is on a train and its next stop is a concentration camp. She must survive if she ever expects to see her son again. The thought of reuniting with him is the only thing that is keeping her alive.
The Train That Took You Away, written by author Catherine Hokin, is a heartbreaking story of never giving up. It’s a story about facing danger and still finding a way to survive.
Esther’s story of having to send her son away so that he would have a chance at survival, will have you reaching for the Kleenex as the tears will start falling. The strength of a mother always amazes me.
This emotional and wonderful story is one that will break your heart into tiny pieces. I couldn’t put this book down until I reached the very end. I highly recommend this phenomenal read.
