Destination Freedom: Escape from Tyranny

Susanne Reyto narrates the story of her childhood under an oppressive Nazi regime followed by traumatic years under Communism before reaching her ultimate destination: freedom in the United States. While Holocaust history is vital the years following World War II are equally important. Nazism was followed by Socialism/Communism and this book describes Susanne's tormented childhood during that era-learning about life under oppressive regimes. Freedom is precious and youngsters need to know that, and protect and cherish it. Learning from first-hand experiences is much more effective than learning from books. Knowledge of history as documented in Destination Freedom provides the most effective means of combating hatred, bigotry and rising anti-Semitism. We must learn from the past and use it to strengthen our ability to withstand negative forces. A family's journey of survival through Nazism and Communism in Hungary. Finally escaping, emigrating to Australia and eventually arriving in the United States. An accurate historical story for children, an inspiration to manage and overcome adversities and look at life in a positive way. Encourages learning about our own history, and by learning about it one can appreciate it. By learning about the past one is better prepared to face the future. History repeats itself. Destination Freedom stands as a beacon for truth, education, free speech, and free expression. We must defend these principles, lest we lose them forever. www.destinationfreedom.net
