Resolute! Comic Story [Hardcover]

"Hey, stop! What's that in your pocket?"

Quick. What should he answer? If they discover the truth, he'll be sent to a cruel, bitter end. But he must guard them. He won't leave them behind, no matter what!

Okay. You can breathe now. Everything ended up okay. Herschel was able to board the train with the great treasure in his pocket: A pair of Tefillin! But don't completely relax yet, because whenhe arrives in the camp, he's going to need to hide them in the snow and he has a feeling that someone's following him ... and he's right!

Herschel was a yeshivah bachur in Munkatch, Romania when the Second World War broke out. When the Nazis sent him to a death camp, he made a firm decision: His Tefillin would remain with him wherever he goes, and he will be careful to put them on every day and let other Yidden have the same zechus.

While heavy battles were fought throughout Europe, the pair of Tefillin accompanied Herschel in hunger and cold. They fled with him to the Carpathian Mountains, hid in an underground bunker and survived a Russian shell that fell right next to him. And then, when the war ended, his Tefillin got lost ... but that is actually what saved him ... But we won't tell you what happened. Read on and find out yourself ...
