Memoirs of a Jew born in 1933. She survived the war thanks to her non-Jewish father Jan van Hulst (1903-1975). In 1940, he changed the medical records of his wife, n? Paula Horowitz (who died of illness in 1944), in order to "de-Jew" his family. This enabled Hannah and her two sisters to go to school, and to be outside and play with her tortoises. The tortoises were killed and eaten by NSB soldiers who raided their house in Amstelveen in January 1945. The sister, aunt, and mother of Paula were deported to the Schouwburg. Jan van Hulst managed to release them. He was active in the Dutch resistance during the war, and was instrumental in preventing Jews from being deported and killed. He built a double wall in the house, and many people were hiddden there.
