She paid no heed to the stories about a man named Adolf Hitler, his Nazi Party, and their plan for a world that did not include Jews. But almost overnight her ordinary life was gone, replaced by a nightmare world of terror and death. Millions of people disappeared into the horror of the Holocaust. But Blima's story survives. It is told here by her daughter, Shirley Russak Wachtel. Review: Small Book~Big Story and very moving. - Having read hundreds of survivor stories I am always amazed that in each one there is something new I have never heard before. This little books packs a hug story. It is written as if Blima herslef is talking to you and telling the story but it is infact her daughter who wrote the book. It is so well done I didn't realize it until the end. One event of that was so mean done in one of the camps Blima was in really shocked me. The Nazi guard would nightly come into the barracks and eat and apple. She would peel it and let the skin fall to the floor then her guard dog would get the core and the peel. Now consider these poor women and girls where starving to death...the sound of her eating a sweet crisp apple. I know a lot of horrid things happened but that was just one salt in the wound I had not heard before. Blima is such a strong woman and I am so glad that she survived. I thank her daughter for getting her story into print so that we may never forget. I must read. Review: Great Easy Read! - This was a great book about the Holocaust. I would recommend having younger people read it, because it was a shorter easier read. ## Technical Specifications | Specification | Value | |---------------|-------| | Best Sellers Rank | #1,754,104 in Books ( See Top 100 in Books ) #29,262 in Memoirs (Books) | | Customer Reviews | 4.3 out of 5 stars 949 Reviews | ## Images ![The Story of Blima: A Holocaust Survivor - Image 1](https://m.media-amazon.com/images/I/61JpaqyOH+L.jpg) ## Customer Reviews ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Small Book~Big Story and very moving. *by K***T on June 1, 2010* Having read hundreds of survivor stories I am always amazed that in each one there is something new I have never heard before.

I would recommend having younger people read it, because it was a shorter easier read. ### ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ Great Story *by S***E on March 6, 2012* This was a fast read on the life of Blima during the Holocaust. I am very interested in this topic and loved reading her story. My only problem was that I learned this was a condensed version of more involved novel and when I tried to find the full book, it is nowhere to be found. I will keep searching, great book and I really want to read the entire story. Great book if you are teaching this subject matter in school. Kids like a fast read and this is just that. --- ## Why Shop on Desertcart? - 🛒 **Trusted by 1.3+ Million Shoppers** — Serving international shoppers since 2016 - 🌍 **Shop Globally** — Access 737+ million products across 21 categories - 💰 **No Hidden Fees** — All customs, duties, and taxes included in the price - 🔄 **15-Day Free Returns** — Hassle-free returns (30 days for PRO members) - 🔒 **Secure Payments** — Trusted payment options with buyer protection - ⭐ **TrustPilot Rated 4.5/5** — Based on 8,000+ happy customer reviews **Shop now:** [https://www.desertcart.vu/products/199494-the-story-of-blima-a-holocaust-survivor](https://www.desertcart.vu/products/199494-the-story-of-blima-a-holocaust-survivor) --- *Product available on Desertcart Vanuatu* *Store origin: VU* *Last updated: 2026-05-18*
