Description :
Based on first-hand information. Here is the first English biography for middle
graders on Maximilian Kolbe, the Polish Franciscan who, at Auschwitz, offered
himself in exchange for the life of a man with two children. The biography
covers Kolbe's early life, his work as a journalist, and his founding of
Niepokalanow, the world's largest friary. Kolbe's act of love and faith teaches
young readers important lessons that Christianity means more than just going
to church, that the Holocaust actually happened, and that saints can be as real
and modern as the person standing next to you in line. For first-hand research,
the author traveled to Poland to visit where Kolbe lived and to interview people
who actually knew him, including his cousin, his secretary, and one of his
students. In addition, the foreword is by Ted Wojtkowski, a fellow camp
prisoner and now a well-known Polish American who was standing close to
Kolbe when he made his offer of self-sacrifice. Kolbe's story is ideal for
children of Polish descent, parochial schools, parish libraries, classes in
cultural diversity, and classes on World War II or the Holocaust. And, while
written simply enough for children, this book will move all readers showing just
how much the human spirit can achieve. 8224
