A BOOK by ME: True Stories Written by Kids for Kids
Adolf Hitler and the Nazi Party rose to power in Germany in the 1930s and invaded Austria in 1938, putting Irene and Walter, both Jewish, in danger. Walter was arrested and taken to prison by the Gestapo. Irene bribed officials to get him released. Irene was able to obtain visas so she and Walter could immigrate to America in 1939. Once there, they worked to bring other family members to the US.
