In 1938, Edith Hahn Beer was a young Jewish woman living in Vienna, Austria. When the Nazis annexed Austria, Edith's life was turned upside down. She was forced to leave her home, her school, and her friends. She was also forced to wear a yellow Star of David on her clothing, which marked her as a Jew.
Edith's parents knew that they had to find a way to get Edith out of Austria. They arranged for her to go to Switzerland, where she would be safe from the Nazis. But Edith's journey to Switzerland was not easy. She had to travel alone, and she had to be careful not to be caught by the Nazis.
Edith eventually made it to Switzerland, where she was reunited with her parents. But her ordeal was not over. The Nazis continued to hunt for Jews, even in Switzerland. Edith had to live in hiding for the rest of the war.
