The world entire

a true story of an extraordinary World War II rescue
by Elizabeth Brown ; illustrated by Melissa Castrillón
Book - 2025

"Everyone has heard of Schindler's list -- but few have heard of Aristides de Sousa Mendes -- a Portuguese diplomat who saves the lives of thousands of fleeing refugees during World War II and whose story is only starting to be better known. This magnificently illustrated picture biography tells the moving story that has profound resonance today. This book tells the true and powerful history of Aristides de Sousa Mendes, the Portuguese diplomat who -- against his government's commands -- helped refugees escape the Nazis by granting visas that allowed them entry to Portugal. In one of the greatest acts of individual rescue in World War II, Mendes saved tens thousands of people, including the artist Salvador Dalí, and H.A. and Margret Rey, the creators of Curious George. He and his family would pay dearly for it, but Aristides never regretted his actions, believing to the very end of his life that every life is worth saving"--
