If Only My Belt Could Speak (Holocaust Survivor's Story)

By Samuel Harris and  Dede Harris If Only My Belt Could Speak shares the true story of Sam Harris, a child survivor of the Holocaust. Sam Harris was only a child when the Nazis came to his small town in Poland. After years in concentration camps, he had only one possession, an old, cracked brown belt. If Only My Belt Could Speak tells Sam’s story, from the Jewish traditions he learned as a child to the horrors of the Nazi concentration camps to his immigration to the United States. Paired with watercolor illustrations, the book relays Sam's vivid memories that have lasted over the decades—of pain, fear, and deprivation, but also family, kindness, courage, and hope.
