Jeremy Dronfield tells ReadingZone why he felt Fritz and Kurt's story needed to be told, and why he wanted to write their story for young people.

Author Jeremy Dronfield's powerful and moving book, The Boy Who Followed his Father Into Auschwitz, which is based on a true story, has now been re-written for a younger readership.  Fritz and Kurt explores how a Jewish father and son survived the Holocaust, while separated from the rest of their family, and recounts some of the terrible experiences they endured during WWII.
