Hanushka: Quest for Freedom is a true story that takes place during the time of Nazi and the Communist regimes in Poland. (Hanushka is a diminutive form of my formal name Halina.) The struggle for survival from an early age made me strong, determined, and even defiant when necessary. When I was a foreign language teacher at Reno high school, my students were always fascinated by my stories about the war. From these experiences, I know that young readers will enjoy the story and will gain insights into dignity, pride, respect, morality, desire for education, courage, loyalty and, above all, responsibility. Nv * Local Review An intriguing tale of war, occupation, family ties, love and determination. It is a true story based on Halina Chanklers life behind the Iron Curtain, and her escape from it. The story moves from her childood in Poland, to adulthood in Germany and France, and describes her will and strength to survive, love and succeed at life. It is also a timely statement regarding tolerance, love of mankind forgiveness and finding peace in everyday encounters with all peoples.
