Nicky & Vera

Petr Sís's new book tells a true story about the Holocaust that should not be forgotten. In 1939, the young Englishman Nicholas "Nicky" Winton participated in rescuing children and transporting them by train from Prague to London. Věra Gissingová is one of the rescued girls. True heroes are often inconspicuous and humble.

Visually impressive processing uses the author's characteristic maps, mazes and stamps, delicate watercolor images hide mysterious line drawings. The book about courage and decency is also inspiring for today - we are all born free and equal, we all have the same right to life.
