<p>"I'm convinced that we need more books like this, so that we can preserve a terrible history in a way that makes it easily accessible on the one hand, but also allows a different, very personal access to the stories on the other. I think that this book belongs with <i>Maus</i> in every bookcase."</p> - Tobi Dahmen, comic artist and illustrator (www.tobidahmen.de) <p>"The graphic narratives in <i>But I Live</i> are powerful and relate the Holocaust stories in profound and intense ways that words alone cannot. Created for middle readers, this book is suitable for adults too." </p> - Beverly Cramp (<em>BC BookWorld</em>) <p>"Last week I was given a gift of sadness, a gift of violence, fear, tragedy and suffering…But it was also a gift of courage, extraordinary determination, unimaginable resilience, and ultimately triumph…The gift came in the form of a recently published collection of three graphic novellas called <i>But I Live</i>. It is a remarkable achievement bringing together four survivors with three writer/illustrators who help portray the harrowing journey of the survivors’ young lives."</p> - Chris (<em>In a Spacious Place</em>) <p>"The combination of stories and artwork is powerful and chilling." </p> - Dean Poling (<em>Valdosta Daily Times</em>) "Who should read this book? Young adults, for sure. But also teachers. Makers of memorials and exhibitions. Historians, literary and art scholars, everyone." - Christian Staas (<em>Die Zeit</em>) "<em>But I Live</em> is a uniquely conceived and structured work that explores new possibilities for Holocaust representation at a moment in history that will see the end of direct survivor testimony. It is distinguished by its multigenre, polyphonic layering of perspectives and forms of representation, organizing a deeply engaging dialogue among survivors, graphic artists, and scholars, who, in concert, arouse, mediate, and reckon with the traumatic past." - Victoria Aarons, Trinity University (<em>Holocaust and Genocide Studies</em>) <p>"The superb, heart-rending book <i>But I Live: Three Stories of Child Survivors of the Holocaust</i> collects the testimonies of four survivors in a graphic narrative format for new generations. It is a powerful and indispensable educational tool not just for high school students, for whom it was designed, but for anyone. Readers can now carry these indelible stories forward." </p> (<em>Quill & Quire</em>)
