They talk about their life in schools and centers within a driving distance. An interview with Mr. Finkelstein and his son is available on the website of the Holocaust Museum in Washington DC.

It must be age appropriate regarding reading level (9th to 11th grades), appropriate for a religious girls' school, and well written for an English classroom. I've done research and so far have only come up with books that are for a younger, more middle school, audience. Thanks!
