One of the most valuable treasures each one of us owns is our stories, both personal and collective. It’s what we endeavor to pass on to the generations that follow. However, some stories are more challenging to pass on than others. For those of us who grew up with grandparent-survivors of the Armenian Genocide, their stories permeated our lives in an organic fashion. How do we we now preserve, honor, and share their amazing legacy with our children? Laura Michael shares how and why she chose to write a children’s book about the orphans of the Armenian Genocide and the child star who mobilized a nation.
