otto,the boy at the window

I have not read a book since high school 1958 until my friend peter ables book wrote his true story escabe from holocaust and new life in america i could not put the book down until I finished reading it and ordered several books to give to some of my friends. thank bill cook Memphis, tenn.

CAPTURES YOUR HEART AND SOUL...

This is a book that will capture your heart and soul. I spent nights crying for Otto, and often wanted to put the book down, but found that I couldn't until I saw him through to the end. His ultimate successes were a real tribute to the strength that can be found within the human soul. This book is spiritual and inspiring and will not leave you.

Not a book you can put down.

I found this a fascinating, informative and enlightening book. It would make a great Christmas/Hanukkah gift because of its' originality and intelligibility.

I Couldn't Put it Down.........

I commend Peter Abeles and Tom Hicks on a well written and very interesting book. Once I picked it up, I could not stop reading it. I was truly inspired by the incredible life Peter Abeles has lived. Going from heart ache and loss in Austria and then coming to America where he and his family started over with hardly anything. Then making a successful life for himself in which his accomplishments are many and are definately something to be very proud of. His life is evidence of that which hurts us only makes us stronger. I would highly recommend this book to anyone who needs proof that hard work really does get you somewhere. Who doesn't need that???

Fascinating and Touching!

I couldn't hold back the tears as I shared Peter's experiences. I was so tremendously encouraged and uplifted as I witnessed a man who found out that it is never too late for love and forgiveness to prevail. Peter and Tom have told this story in a unique and entertaining way.
