Josee Bisaillon grew up in St. Hyacinthe, Quebec, Canada. Her illustrations are a mixture of collage, drawings, and digital montage, taking us into a richly detailed and multidimensional world.
"[W]hat truly distinguishes this book is the striking multimedia
artwork composed of paper, fabric, and drawn images in hues of
olive, brown, and red. Interesting angles, textures, and patterns
add to the visual effect throughout. . . . [T]he message of terror
and sadness that marks the beginning of the Holocaust is
transmitted in a way that is both meaningful and
comprehensible."

"It is not easy to tell young kids the horrifying truth about the
Holocaust, but this picture book is a good place to start."
