Review Quotes:

"Hiding Edith is an awesome tribute to the people of Moissac, France who defied their German occupiers by hiding the existence of hundreds of Jewish children, to Shatta and Bouli Simon, and to Edith herself. A gem of a book and an amazing piece of Holocaust history."

-- "Ottawa Jewish Bulletin"
