"Originally published as Lily's Promise in the United Kingdom in 2021 by Pan Macmillan." -- T. p. verso.

"A ninety-eight-year-old Holocaust survivor--and TikTok sensation thanks to her great-grandson Dov -- relays the details of her harrowing experiences at Auschwitz and how, after losing so much, she was able to build a new life for her family and herself. On Yom Kippur, 1944, Lily Ebert made a promise. She would survive the hell of Auschwitz and, when finally freed, tell the world her story to help prevent such evil from ever happening again. Now, at ninety-seven, this remarkable woman fulfills that vow, sharing the details of her experiences with candor, charm, and overflowing heart. Her great-grandson Dov knows that it is up to younger people like him to keep Lily's promise alive, so he recorded her story -- an unforgettable tale of resilience and resistance."
