Sheryl Needle Cohn, Ed.D, is a faculty member at the University of Central Florida. She is the author of the fictional illustrated children’s series, The Salamander Stories. Dr. Cohn is also a playwright. Her reader’s theater production of Bella’s Story, from Pogrom to Holocaust has been performed by drama students in high schools, history and education majors in colleges, book clubs, and members of religious and secular organizations. Her research interests include Holocaust education and global genocide.

It is important to continue to tell the stories of those brutally humiliated, tortured, and murdered during the Holocaust. . . . This book ensures that the innocent victims will no longer remain anonymous in their deaths. As the Maggid of her ancestral Dubno before her, Sheryl tells unique and inspirational stories in her book. In doing so, she honors the memory of the brave resistors, rescuers, and especially the families whose ultimate revenge is their continuance today.
