A brief but touching book about two young girls caught in the horror of the Nazi occupation of Poland in the 1930’s. It underscores the weight of a single, selfless gesture and the impact of just a few words and how the two together empowered one to “hold on.
Gerda Weissmann Klein, author of several books and the subject of an Oscar-winning film, One Survivor Remembers, survived the Holocaust and has spent years carrying a message of hope and courage, and the challenge to all she meets to leave a legacy. When she met Ryan Cottor, namesake of Ryan House, his courage and spirit touched her and he reminded Gerda of her dear friend, Ilse. And like Ilse, Gerda feels Ryan, too, is leaving a legacy. It is named Ryan House.

Gerda Weissmann Klein has dedicated her book, One Raspberry to Ilse and Ryan Cottor. Each book is $20.00 and all proceeds from the sale of One Raspberry go directly to the Ryan House Endowment Fund.
Interested in purchasing One Raspberry? Buy a copy of your very own through the Changing Hands location in Tempe, AZ.
