The Hidden Child Book Club has been meeting since 2007, first under the auspices of the Anti-Defamation League, and now of the Skirball Center of Jewish learning at Temple Emanu-el in New York City. In time, the group, all of whom had been hidden in Europe during World War II, began to write their stories. A number of them had in fact written-and published-previously, and two of the stories had served as the basis of video and film productions. It is the authors' collective wish, and that of the individuals and groups that have supported them, to see these stories in settled and permanent print form, so that they can bear ongoing witness to the legacy of the Holocaust and become a source of inspiration to their families.
