Published by Norton Young Readers, "Nicky & Vera" is a new book, by award-winning author-artist Peter Sís, that introduces the Holocaust to youngsters ages 6-9 using inviting language and whimsical images to tell the story of Sir Nicholas Winton and one of the 669 children he saved, Vera Gissing.

"Nicky & Vera" is a tale of decency, action, and courage told in luminous, poetic images by an internationally renowned artist. This family program will include a reading and a Q&A engagement for all ages. The panel will feature Barbara Winton, the daughter of Sir Nicholas Winton; Peter Sís, author and illustrator; and Michele Gold, Museum Board Chair and the daughter of Rita Berwald who journeyed to safety on a Kindertransport out of Leipzig, Germany.
