Synopsis of Nicky & Vera
En diciembre de 1938, el joven Nicholas Winton cancela sus vacaciones de esquí para viajar a Praga, donde organiza el rescate de casi 700 niños judíos antes del estallido de la Segunda Guerra Mundial. Entre ellos se encuentra la pequeña Vera Gissing, quien debe abandonar su hogar y a su familia para sobrevivir en Inglaterra. A través de imágenes poéticas y luminosas, el artista Peter Sís entrelaza las historias de estos dos personajes reales para ofrecer un relato conmovedor sobre la decencia, el coraje y la humanidad frente al horror del Holocausto. Este libro álbum está diseñado para que incluso los niños más pequeños puedan comprender la importancia de ayudar a los demás y no mirar hacia otro lado ante la injusticia. Es una obra fundamental que rescata la memoria histórica de los 'Kindertransporte' y celebra la vida de un héroe silencioso que demostró que un solo individuo puede marcar una diferencia extraordinaria en el mundo.
