Nicky & Vera

by Peter Sis Author

In 2009 Peter Sis chanced upon a celebration in Prague of the life of Nicholas Winton, who saved 669 children from Nazi-occupied Prague—and told no one about it. Inspired by documentary accounts of Winton's life and the writings of Vera Gissing, one of the children he rescued, Nicky & Vera tells this quiet hero's story.
