Like the historical fiction Prisoner B-XXXXXXX by Alan Gratz, this book's child just keeps going and going- to farm after farm no matter what hardships fall him. Since the book is translated, its very hard to understand at some parts and sometimes it can be a very confusing book to read. The book I’m reviewing is “Run, Boy, Run” written by Uri Orlev.
Also, while Srulik’s story is tied up at the end, many of the people he encounters disappear quite abruptly, as I’m sure was the case in real life. After losing his family, eight-year old Jewish boy, Srulik Frydman, had to live like this in the Poland countryside during World War II. The last ways he survived is by working as a farm hand/being accepted into a family the main family that accepts him also taught him to act like a christian.I thought there would be more potential. Srulik's father's last words are to hide his Jewish identity but to never forget who he really is, a Jew. I really liked the movie for its realistic content and story-telling. My son (age 8) read Run, Boy, Run, a true story of a young boy who escaped the Warsaw ghetto and lived on the run until the end of the war. He changes his name and pretends to be Catholic. He escapes the Ghetto and his struggle to survive on his own is told in a simple, straightforward style, yet the reader inevitably feels his pain while turning the pages.
Srulik, the young boy in question, is compelled by his father to escape the Warsaw Ghetto, where Srulik and his family are held prisoner by the Nazis.
He escapes into the countryside where he spends the ensuing years hiding in the forest, dependent on the sympathies and generosity of the poor farmers in the surrounding area.

It’s an amazing story, and the references to difficult things are oblique enough that younger kids might not catch them.We started studying World War II, and so the kids are reading a lot about that time period. A mid paced book but the scene changed everyone once in awhile. In the beginning of the novel he’s living with his family in the Polish Warsaw Ghetto, but soon Run, Boy, Run by Uri Orlev has won several awards including the IBBY Hans Christian Anderson Award and the 2004 Batchelder Award (an award given to outstanding literature that was originally written in a foreign language and translated into English—this book was originally written in Hebrew).
It is based on the true story of Srulik Frydman, a young Polish boy who was also Jewish, during World War II. Most American kids are clueless about the horrors of wars and this was filled with xenophobias. Words cannot describe the hardships he faced including losing his arm.I enjoyed this book, and it did a good job on showing how horrible it was for people that lived during the Holocaust. Compelling and heartbreaking account of a young Jewish boy's survival during the Holocaust
In this book, I really felt like I was the character, I even forgot his original name was Srulik xD.
