“The author of Kar-Ben biographies intended to write this book for teenagers. But everyone can follow up on the sensitive written story about the life from Marcel Marceau. As a teenager in France, in the middle during the Nazi occupation, he smuggled Jewish children across the France-Swiss boarder. But what to do, to keep the frightend children from crying and how to distract them? He discovered that without words and only mimics he could keep them occupied. Later on Marcel changed his surname to Marceau and refined his skills in the Sarah Bernhardt Theater. He also joined the French Resistance against the Nazis earlier.”
