Description

"Don't let her know you're scared," Alexander's father had said to him the first time Alexander had sat on Sari's back.

Fourteen-year-old Alexander Altmann doesn't need to look at the number tattooed on his arm, A10567; he knows it by heart. He also knows to survive Auschwitz, he must toughen up. Being soft will get him killed.

Alexander will take any chance he's given—and when that chance is caring for the German officers' horses, he grabs it. He just can't let them know he's scared.

Alexander Altmann A10567 is a gripping tale of courage, resilience, and the fight for survival in the face of unimaginable horrors.
