When Grete and Julius fled Nazi Germany, they never imagined they’d be forced into hiding in a Dutch attic. While in hiding, their daughter Marion was born—a moment of light amid the darkest of times. Years later, Marion Seidemann Fredman shares her family’s courageous story of love, loss, and resilience in this visually rich, nonfiction picture book.
A Time to Hide is a vital Holocaust story that honors memory, teaches history, and helps ensure the next generation understands and remembers this powerful legacy of survival.
MARION SEIDEMANN FREDMAN lives in Berkeley, California surrounded by her family, friends, dogs, chickens, treasures, and memories. She spends much of her time in her garden making whimsical art and hanging out with her offspring. This is her first book.
ELISA KLEVEN is the acclaimed author and/or illustrator of over thirty children’s books, including Sun Bread, a NY Times Best illustrated book, The Paper Princess, and Abuela, by Arthur Dorros. For as long as she can remember, Elisa has loved creating imaginary characters and miniature worlds in her stories and art. Elisa lives in the San Francisco Bay Area with her family.
