Okay kiddo, today we are going to talk about a man named Pope Pius XII and the very bad things that happened during the Holocaust.
So, a long time ago (around 80 years ago), there was a really bad leader called Adolf Hitler. He wanted to make sure that one group of people, called Jewish people, didn't exist anymore.
Jewish people were being hurt and killed by the thousands, and many countries didn't want to help them. One of the most important people at that time was Pope Pius XII. He was the leader of the Catholic Church and many people thought he could help stop what was happening to the Jewish people.
People have different opinions on how well the Pope did during the Holocaust. Some people think he did everything he could to help and save people, while others think he didn't do enough.
During this time, the Pope did speak out against the Holocaust and tried to help Jewish people escape. But at the same time, some people think he could have done more, like speaking out more often and more strongly against what was happening.
So overall, Pope Pius XII had a very big role during the Holocaust, and people have different opinions on how well he did. But one thing we can all agree on, is that we should always try to help and protect people who are being hurt or mistreated, no matter who they are.
