A deeply moving and vivid story of survival! I will think of Rena and Danka on May 2nd of every year and always when I see red and white carnations together! I've read numerous books on the holocaust, from memoirs, bios, etc., this one was so moving! Highly recommend!!!! Let us all NEVER forget!!!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars the best account ever Jun 18 2003
By rebecca hardman
Format:Paperback
rena's promis is one of the best accounts of consintration camps i have ever read. it shows how two sisters fight together and stand together when all the odds are against them. rena never leaves her sister's side and together, they stand up to the forces against them, and bake it through the consintration camps together. this book was heart wrenching, but you always love the two girls and the people who help them through out the book. this book makes you want to just run up and give these two girls a hug; it really is one of the best accounts of the brutality of the S.S. i have ever read, and i will always remember this book.

5.0 out of 5 stars Moving And Beautifull Feb 8 2003
By Karma_Doll
Format:Paperback
Rena's Promise is a most moving and beautifull Holocaust book, and without all the gore, it still shows the atrocity that was hapenning during the holocaust. Rena also manages to stay un-bitter about her past in the Dark War, making this book a classic memoir to the dead. Astonishing and breath taking, you will be held captive by the past, held in this book.

This is the best Holocaust book I have read so far. It was touching, sad, and really heartwarming. Like most books written by survivors of concentration camps, it makes you angry... Read more
