---

The inspiring true story of a Dutch boy's survival during WWII, this harrowing tale begins with 7-year-old Jack watching the bombing of the ship Statendam in the harbor across from the apartment where he has been placed with virtual strangers. Facing certain death around every corner, Jack manages to evade the Nazi fanatics bent on murdering every Jewish child in Europe. From his remarkable tale of deprivation and courage, to his journeys to Israel and America, Jack's sense-of-humour and resilience remain intact, making his story a reader's delight.

Jack Prins earned a B.S. in Engeneering after immigrating to the United States. After graduation, he worked for IBM while earning a PhD in Statistics. Jack co-authored a Computer Statistics Manual still in use today and had taught at three universities.

Barbara Harwood began her journalism career at the Denver Post, eventually moving on to shows at KBTV-ABC in Denver and Time-Life Broadcasting. She owned the Plano Chronicle in Texas, then wrote for the Chicago Sun-Times.
