Selected videos supporting New York Times bestselling author Lauren Tarshis, for her "I Survived," series. Each of these historical fiction books focuses on an iconic event from history, and tells the story through the eyes of a child who was there. The theme of the series is resilience: how human beings can struggle through even the most difficult experiences and somehow not simply survive but heal - and ultimately thrive. The True Stories titles feature real children from history and today facing extraordinary events.

Lauren is also SVP and Editor in Chief of Scholastic's Classroom Magazine Division. She is the long-time editor of Scholastic Storyworks magazine, an award-winning multi-genre language arts magazine read by more than 1 million children in their fourth and fifth-grade classrooms.More videos can be found at www.laurentarshis.com
