Escaping a Well of Fear - Paperback

by Kristyn Anne Huige (Author)

Escaping a Well of Fear is the true story of a young girl's courage and her family's love during World War II in Belgium.

Kristyn Anne Huige, born Wilfrida Ferdinanda Louisa Huige, takes readers back to her childhood, where survival meant quick thinking and bravery. She recalls hiding in ditches from gunfire, hearing the roar of planes overhead, and finding moments of peace in her family's small kitchen.

At the center of the story is Mama, a strong and resourceful woman who kept her family safe. Mama's sewing skills, clever cooking, and unshakable strength gave them hope and comfort even when fear was all around.

This book isn't just about war-it's about family, love, and the power of imagination. Kristyn and her siblings created stories about their father, imagining him as a superhero who would rescue them. Through her young eyes, we see both the dangers of war and the small joys that kept them going.

Escaping a Well of Fear is an inspiring memoir about resilience and the bonds that carry us through the hardest times. It's a story for anyone who believes in the power of hope and family.
