El Holocausto fue un genocidio de una magnitud nunca antes vista, con doce millones de personas asesinadas en los campos de exterminio nazis, seis millones de ellos judíos.

Presenta la información suficiente para lectores de escuela primaria en un libro legible y bien fundamentado, que cubre uno de los eventos más horribles de la historia.

The Holocaust was a genocide on a scale never before seen, with as many as twelve million people killed in Nazi death camps--six million of them Jews. Gail Herman traces the rise of Hitler and the Nazis, whose rabid anti-Semitism led first to humiliating anti-Jewish laws, then to ghettos all over Eastern Europe, and ultimately to the Final Solution. She presents just enough information for an elementary-school audience in a readable, well-researched book that covers one of the most horrible events in history.

Includes a letter from the editor and series creator, Jane O'Connor.
