About this item
She made it through the first selection… but can she survive to see the end of the war?
Marysia is only seventeen when war breaks out in her hometown of Krakow, Poland. With nothing more than a toothbrush in hand, Marysia splits from the rest of her family and follows her mother to the Krakow ghetto, where they think they will be safe.
But safety is fleeting, and the ghetto is no haven. Soon, Marysia and her mother are on a train bound for a place more terrifying than imagination can conceive – Auschwitz.
Stripped of everything that makes them human and waiting in line to be sentenced to life or death, Marysia ingeniously applies a swipe of used lipstick she found by chance to add color to their cheeks. Their ploy works – but survival in Auschwitz is a daily battle, and they will need more than a little luck, and a lot of courage, to make it through.
Based on a true story of heroic survival, Lipstick in Auschwitz spins an unbelievable tale of bravery, determination, resourcefulness, and the unbreakable bond between a mother and her daughter, even within the walls of one of the most evil places ever known to man.
