Title: World War II Gem!
Review: Miracle at Moreaux is an inspirational film about overcoming prejudice and the persecution of Jews in WWII. It shows how a group of children harbor hatred and fear for Jews based on the teachings of their parents. When three Jewish children attempt to escape Nazi-occupied France, they become stranded at a French Boarding School run by a Catholic Sister. The Sister and her charges hide the Jewish children and help them on their journey. In the process, they learn that Jewish people are no different from themselves. They learn that there is no place for hatred in our world. It is a lovely film that I use each year in my classroom. I feel it is appropriate for 3rd grade and up.
