About the Book
Elisabeth "Bep" de Graaff was just entering her teen years in Holland when World War II invaded her life. For the next five years, her life was turned upside down as she and her family struggled through the Nazi occupation. From watching bombing raids to hiding Jews to enduring the terrible "Hunger Winter" of 194445, Bep experienced more before she was 18 than most of us experience in a lifetime.
This, in her own words, is Bep's story. She shares her memories of that time in her life, and how her faith in God has carried her through the trauma of war and her experiences afterward. The Girl From Rotterdam is a touching story of growing up in wartime, and how spiritual faith can help one through the harshest of hardships.About the Author
Elisabeth de Graaff lives in Milton, Wisconsin. After growing up during World War II in Holland, she emigrated to the United States in 1956. Elisabeth (also known as Betty or ?Bep?) is the proud mother of five children and ten grandchildren.
