Download or read book Ben s Story A Present Day Hanukkah Miracle written by Anne Marie Margaritondo and published by Covenant Books, Inc.. This book was released on 2019-12-05 with total page 33 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Imagine yourself an eleven-year-old boy lost and alone at night in a land full of towering mountains, surging rivers and thick, uninhabited forests. Wild animals still claim the territory as their own and when their food source is scarce, you discover that to them any meat will do. To make matters worse, it's the middle of winter, snow is falling, and any familiar path has disappeared under snow. As the hours pass, you helplessly wander deeper into unknown territory, all in search for your missing puppy--the very reason you bolted out into the forest in the first place. Now you're in desperate need of help yourself. Such was the position Ben found himself in one cold Hanukkah night in December. Home now seemed more than a miracle away for Ben. Only the help of a God whose power and existence Ben has begun to question could possibly save him from an imminent and certain end.

Download or read book When Glass Breaks written by Allissa Oldenberg and published by Grosvenor House Publishing. This book was released on 2023-10-19 with total page 423 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: 'When Glass Breaks' is the heart-rending story of Ben Lindenheim, who became separated from his older brother during the Kindertransport, and who lived a life of heroism, trauma, adventure, love, denial, illness, family, failure and lies, but always in the hope of one day being reunited with his brother. Only at the end, does the reader discover the novel is narrated by Helen Painter, as she seeks to piece together fragments of her father's past, most of which he tried to conceal from his family. She knew only that he had a war pension due to a shrapnel injury - he had a scar; that he fought with the Royal Norfolk regiment - or so he said; that he was an army boxing champion - impossible to check out; that he spent a couple of years in South Africa - which may have been true as there were two African-language books on the bookshelves at home; that he was educated at Winchester - but he knew no Latin or Greek; that his family were killed in the Blitz, with one brother dying in North Africa, and which may have included a baby son - something his post-stroke lability let slip; and that he was Jewish - which she knew from her own DNA test, taken long after he died. Nothing much checked out and the family history searches revealed no mention of the surname before his marriage certificate. So, she filled in the blanks, and gave him a past, one which would honour the father with whom she had shared a difficult relationship, largely, she came to acknowledge, due to the psychological scars he bore. Anyone who has read 'En Passant' will have become acquainted with Saul Lindenheim, a minor character who has lived for many years with the guilt of being separated from his brother Ben during the Kindertransport and the hope of one day being reunited. 'When Glass Breaks' is the story of Ben's life.
