MOM'S CHOICE AWARD WINNER for Adult Book, Historical Fiction

Running, hiding and stealing, day after day was all the children knew
since escaping from the concentration camp known as Bergen-Belsen.
They found that life ouside the camp was just as brutal as inside.
Six year-old Ursula, her older brother and four other children were
smuggled out of the camp by a brave soldier in the bottom of his truck.
Handing them a few provisions, the soldier dropped off the children
in the forest, leaving them to fend for themselves.

Ursula’s Prism is based on the true story of Ursula Swartz and five
other childrenwho escaped from Bergen-Belsen and crossed
war-torn Germany on foot to freedom. Ursula shares the secrets
of the prism with the other children and the power of there
imagination gives them the strength to survive.

Anna Block

“Growing up and living with a Holocaust survivor is a humbling experience. I had the desire to write my mother’s story when I was in my early twenties, but she was not receptive at that time. Then one day, decades later, she was talking to a man who told her that he didn’t think the Holocaust ever happened. She was angered, and she cried, and now out of that saddening confrontation, an incredible story has emerged.”

The author lives in Pennsylvania and is employed at a local area hospital as a Medical Lab Technician. Ursula’s Prism is her first book.
