The remarkable true story of how a toy duck smuggled forged
identity papers for Jewish refugees during WWIIDuring World War II,
families all across Europe huddled together in basements, attics,
and closets as Nazi soldiers rounded up anyone Jewish. The Star of
David, a symbol of faith and pride, became a tool of hate when the
Nazis forced Jewish people to carry papers stamped with that star,
so that it was clear who to capture. But many brave souls dared to
help them.Jewish teenager Jacqueline Gauthier, a member of the
French Resistance who had to conceal her identity, was one who
risked her life in secret workshops, forging papers with new names
and without stars in order to help others escape. But how to get
these life-saving papers to families in hiding? An ordinary wooden
toy duck held the answer, a hidden compartment: hope in a
hollow.Written by award-winning journalist Elisa Boxer and movingly
illustrated by the acclaimed Amy June Bates, Hope in a Hollow
celebrates the triumph of freedom and the human spirit, a story of
everyday heroism, resilience, and finding hope in unexpected
places.
