Product Information

A powerful story set in Nazi occupied Denmark in 1943. Ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen is called upon for a selfless act of bravery to help save her best-friend, Ellen -- a Jew. It is 1943 and for ten-year-old Annemarie Johansen life is still fun -- school, family, sharing fairy stories with her little sister. But there are dangers and worries too -- the Nazis have occupied Copenhagen and there are food shortages, curfews and the constant threat of being stopped by soldiers. And for Annemarie the dangers become even greater...her best-friend Ellen is a Jew. When Ellen's parents are taken away to be 'relocated' by the Nazis, Ellen is taken in by Annemarie's parents and suddenly Annemarie's family are under threat too. Annemarie has to call upon all her resources for courage and bravery as she helps her friend make a daring escape. A Newbery Medal winner by an acclaimed author *For readers from 8 to 12 *

  • danish resistance in the second world war

    This is a sad story of German occupation of Denmark towards the end of the second world war - really a book written for children or adolescents but makes an interesting read and is quite close to historical fact - a quick read but an interesting one
