Julek Grunfeld was eleven in 1941 when his father was killed in a mass execution of Jewish men in their Polish town. Julek, his mother, and his sister escaped detection by the Nazis using false baptismal documents. They lived with gentile families and worked in close proximity to Germans, with the constant fear that their true names and identities would be discovered.
