Synopsis
In a sensitive and poignant portrayal of the events of the Holocaust, Star of Fear, Star of Hope introduces children to this difficult, but important topic.
Stars at morning, better take warning.
Stars at night, hope is in sight.
Helen recalls her childhood during the Nazi occupation of France and the mounting persecution of the Jewish people.
On the eve of her birthday, Helen is excited to celebrate with her best friend Lydia. But when a fearful woman appears at Helen's house, Lydia suddenly wants to go home early, and Helen can't understand why. Does it have to do with the yellow star that both Lydia and this woman are wearing? Why are people in hiding and using strange names? What is Lydia afraid of?
Set during the World War II Nazi occupation of France, this is a powerful story of friendship, fear, and the hope we must always hold dear.
