I Never Saw Another Butterfly by Hana Volavkova
I Never Saw Another Butterfly is a collection of works of art and poetry by Jewish children who lived in the concentration camp Theresienstadt. This book is named after a poem by one of the children, Pavel Friedmann. Where known, the fate of each young author is listed. Most died prior to the camp being liberated.
Published to coincide with the opening in April 1993 of the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington, D.C., this collection of drawings and poetry documents the terrible daily misery endured by these children. Of the 15,000 children under the age of 15 who passed through this camp, fewer than 100 survived. 60 color illustrations.
