Audio Format

Overview

"A young Jewish boy and his siblings fleeing a world destroyed by hate. A notoriously cruel anti-Semite hunting for Jews. Why did this murderer risk his own life to save these children? An eleven-year-old boy and his siblings fight for survival after the evil of the Nazi regime descends upon Poland. Time after time, they miraculously escape certain death as the murderous fascists attempt to make their hometown of Tluste Judenrein. Their luck seems to have run out when the Germans order to liquidate their work camp. Unexpected help comes from Timush, a man known for his terrible deeds against the Jews. After hearing their mother shout to him in a desperate plea, ""Save my children!"" as she is marched to her execution, Timush amazingly risks his own life to make sure they survive. Save my Children is the true story of the transformation of a man once filled with hate and violence who made the ultimate sacrifice to save the people he once sought to kill. A unique story inspiring hope that hatred can be overcome."

Author Information

Leon Kleiner is a retired commercial and residential real estate developer from New Jersey. He was born in the city of Tarnopol, Poland just a little over a decade before the beginning World War II. After the war, the city became a part of the Ukraine and still is today. Leon's early life before and during the war is documented in his memoir, Save My Children. He miraculously survived the Holocaust and immigrated to America in 1947 where he married his wife, Halina, who is also a survivor of the Holocaust. They met in a displaced persons camp in Austria in 1945. He and his brother worked hard to save up enough money to invest in a real estate company that was benefiting from the post-war housing boom. In 1964, he moved from New York to New Jersey, where he formed a new real estate company with his brother. Their business grew and prospered over the following years. Now in his nineties, he is enjoying retirement with Halina. They are the proud parents of two daughters. They also had a son who was tragically lost to cancer in his early twenties. His daughters have given them five grandchildren and they just recently welcomed their first great grandson. Edwin Stepp has more than thirty years experience in media, marketing, and advertising. He was executive editor for the quarterly, Vision-Journal for a New World, for over fifteen years. He wrote dozens of articles about history, culture, environment, and current events for the publication. David Colacci is an actor and director who has directed and performed in prominent theaters nationwide. As a narrator, he has recorded more than one hundred audiobooks, earned eight AudioFile Earphones Awards, and been a finalist for the prestigious Audie Award.
