In Sunshine and In Shadow: We Remember Them is a perfect title for this outstanding book, for it vividly portrays the beautiful life of a young girl, Vera, and her family — her grandparents, aunts, uncles, and parents — prior to 1939 and the darkness of the years during the Holocaust and then once again the sunshine after 1945. All readers will learn much from the autobiography about family, perpetrators, heroes — especially Raoul Wallenberg, and about the consequences of the evils of bias, bigotry, and prejudice. Teachers using the memoir and the photographs will be able to assist students to leam about the Holocaust and specifically in New Jersey to meet the legislative educational mandate to teach about Holocaust and genocide.
