I Am Lubo, is a true story of growing up, before, during, and after the Holocaust. It tells about a child's struggle, not only to survive, but also to keep his true identity throughout those difficult years.This is an inspirational story that needs to be told.

The story narrated through the eyes of Lubo, a young boy, who fascinated by the all the happenings is unaware of the dangers that surround him. Despite all the fear, humiliation, difficulties of constant movement, changes of identity, separation from his parents, Lubo remains upbeat and positive.

The German bombing of Belgrade, and the brutal prosecution of the Jews in Croatia that followed, shatter Lubo’s pre-war idyllic life in Zagreb, Croatia. To save their lives Lubo’s parents flee to Italy. Not knowing what awaits them, they leave seven year old Lubo with his aunt, married to his Catholic uncle. Two years later, at the age of eight someone informs the Nazis and he is arrested and ready to be sent to the concentration camp in Germany. Through intervention of friends and relatives he is released six hours before the scheduled convoy departure and smuggled to his parents in Italy. The family relative safety in Treviso, Italy is broken by the German invasion that forces them to flee again to Rome, where the Allies eventually liberate them. After the liberation, Lubo returns to Communist Yugoslavia, emigrates to Israel, and finally arrives to the United States.

As the number of Holocaust survivors shrinks daily their memories will be lost. This is one of the many stories about the Holocaust that has an urgency to be told. It differs from others, since it shows the triumph of a child’s spiritual and physical survival and the goodness of many people who risk their lives to save his.

I loved this book, written by Lubo himself, about his difficult life through the second world war as a young boy. Very moving and sad. A highly recommended read.

This story is not simply another holocaust survival tale, but rather a journey of one child’s struggle to discover his true identity. The story begins in June, 1938 in Zagreb with a young boy named Lubo who sketches a happy, carefree life including imitating a traffic policeman and going to the barber shop with his father, Kolega. His mother Mutika adores him; the only thorn in his side is his mean governess, “Fraulein.” Lubo’s carefree life of playing with tin soldiers, trains and cars is shattered on April 6, 1941, when he is trapped in the air raid on Belgrade while visiting his grandmother. His mother takes him on a desperate journey by rail, boat and foot in an attempt to return home, only to find Nazi soldiers in their living room upon their arrival. With a child’s simplicity, Lubo is delighted to see real soldiers carrying real guns visiting his home. Soon Lubo’s parents are required to wear badges indicating that they are Jews, and Kolega joins the army. Conditions rapidly deteriorate; Lubo’s parents decide to convert to Catholicism and flee to Italy.

Lubo embarks on a lifelong quest to find his identity. His journey will include living with aunts, uncles and cousins,staying with his mother in Italy, narrowly avoiding being sent to a concentration camp in Germany, and getting back to Yugoslavia with his father for a short time. Lubo just wants to be back living a normal child’s life with his parents, but their lives keep taking separate turns. Lubo will even find himself on a kibbutz in Israel living with other children of foreigners who also see themselves as outcasts. When Lubo is finally nearing his eighteenth birthday, he decides to join the Israeli Air Force so he can use the technical knowledge he enjoys. Again he is frustrated because he does not have a high school diploma; so he pleads with his mother, who is now living in America to send for him. Lubo finds another roadblock when he arrives in America. He will encounter new forms of discrimination and frustration in America as well. Despite all obstacles, Lubo eventually succeeds in discovering his path to success and happiness.

I am truly impressed with the honestly and sincerity of this memoir which took the author much of his life to write. He writes from the perspective of a frightened child who through no fault of his own has been placed in the path of overwhelming roadblocks to his success. The events of the holocaust are cast in historical perspective seen through the eyes of a young child who had to constantly rearrange his life to suit them. Adding to the uniqueness of the story are the personal photographs of people, places, and events that the author has managed to acquire. It is a powerful read that I think tweens and teens as well as adults will find compelling. Pechi includes an epilogue revealing what happened to each of the major characters. Another bonus feature is a list of questions that the reader should be able to answer after reading the book that will guide classroom or seminar discussion groups on the holocaust. A highly recommended read!

The children of the Holocaust

Lou Pechi's book "I am Lubo" is a sad and also a delightful story, it is written from a child's perspective yet it is an important history and child psychology book. It is also a serious account of what has happened to children during the war. Frequently thet were requested to act as adults without understanding why. During WWII, under Nazi occupation, childhood, as is known, didn't exist. Relationship that were formed with other children were brutally and curly terminated by the need of the moment. Lou Pechi who is in fact Lubo tells how as a child he was left to the care of Catholic relatives, he had to change his name, his urban resident in Zagreb, and also his religion. He had to adjust to ever changing identity. Lubo grew, as many Jewish children did, without an anchor, without a country and without a language of their own and worst of all most frequently in the absence of a mother and a father. To adjust, to compromise, was the motto of their existence. What a young child wished to be, to do, and with whom was not even relevant; it was circumscribed by the needs of the moment.

I would highly recommend this book to every reader but most to those who follow the Holocaust literature.

The story was good but it was extremely hard to read because of the poor editing for the Kindle. Too often, sentences were scrambled and out of order and it was like trying to put together a puzzle with missing pieces. Hard and not much fun.

My own opinion: I love reading Jewish stories from the 2nd WW. This one was very different from what i usually read. It was more of a biography and didnt really deal with Jews in concentration camps but more of his journey to keep away from the Germans.
