Julie has co-written Gidon’s memoir “The True Adventures of Gidon Lev. Rascal. Holocaust Survivor.

Gidon, (formerly Peter Wolfgang Löw) was born in Czechoslovakia in 1935. In 1941, Gidon and his mother and father were taken to the Theresienstadt (or Terezin) concentration camp, which was located about 50 kilometers north of Prague. ​Of the 15,000 children in Theresienstadt, fewer than 92 survived. Gidon Lev is one of those children. He wound up in Canada, where he became involved with the Zionist youth organization HaShomer HaTzair and in 1959, Gidon came to Israel to fulfill his dream. Gidon is now 86 years old and delivers flowers, as well as sharing on Tiktok daily!
