A very useful resource to allow students to see Jewish people not simply as victims. from swhitlam, 04 November 2012	(report comment)	5 out of 5
Super useful to expland pupils knowledge of the holocaust in managble bite sized pieces! from em6826, 04 February 2012	(report comment)	5 out of 5
A great visual resource with comprehensive supporting material which should allow pupils to humanise the vicotms of the Holocaust. As with all Holsocaust resources the impact upon the pupils must be considered carefully before use. from mblan, 27 January 2012. Member of the TES Panel.	(report comment)	5 out of 5
