Recently, the English version of Cipora Hurwitz's memoirs from her childhood years in the Holocaust came off the press. The book, Forbidden Strawberries, is available both in a printed form and in electronic versions. The original Hebrew version of the book, "Tutim Asurim", was very well received in Israel and the first printing has almost been sold out. Many readers have compared the book to "The Diary of Anne Frank." The renowned Holocaust scholar, Professor Yehudah Bauer wrote, "Read the book. This is a gripping life story and extremely important." Professor Israel Gutman, the former Chief Historian of Yad Vashem, declared that "It is a must that this book be translated and published in a number of languages." The book is available from: Multi-Educator (the Publisher); Kindle Edition; Book from Amazon Store; Barnes and Nobles Nook; iBooks. Anyone interested in purchasing a copy should go to the following link and there you will be able to make your choice: http://www.multieducator.net/Books/ForbiddenStrawberries.html The link also has a short description of the book and a very moving segment of a film taken in the Majdanek extermination camp, in which Cipora relates to Jewish youngsters her experience as a child in the camp.
