Your initial comment here was in reference to a young man named "FRENKEL, Isaak" or "FRENKEL, Izak" (b. 22/05/1934). Indeed, he was a less than 10 years old in 1942 (when massive transports of people were deported from the Lodz ghetto to Chelmno where they were killed). In fact, according to the Lodz Ghetto Database, Izak was among those deported (most likely to Chelmno) on March 15, 1942. He would have been almost 8 years old.
HOWEVER, I do not believe that is the same boy who signed the schools album in 1941. I believe that is another young man listed in the Lodz Ghetto Database as "Icek Rywen Frenkiel."
