The Statistics of The Holocaust
Many Jews were systematically killed during the holocaust but, the ones who were targeted the most were children. Around !.6 million Jewish children were alive before the holocaust. After however there were no more than .1 million left. That means that over 1.5 million were killed during Hitler's horrendous reign.
Most children were killed because they were considered "useless eaters". Once they arrived at concentration camps they were immediately gassed or killed by other of the Nazi's terrifying ways of systematic killing.
One of the children to die was Anne Frank. We know her story because of her diary preserved by her father, Otto Frank. Because of her, we have a little taste of how much fear Jewish children.
