If you can handle it, My Story by Alicia Appleman-Jurman is a good Holocaust book. However, it is pretty long and graphic. My parents' friends gave that to me in fourth grade. I had nightmares for a long time after that.

I've read quite a few books on the Holocaust and seen several movies; the disgusting scene to which I alluded in The Painted Bird had nothing to do with the Holocaust, per se. I'll be checking into your suggestion.
