Publisher Description: Rudi, Helmuth, and Karl are best friends from church. But soon it looks like they may have other Sunday activities--they are forced to join Hitler's youth group. Quickly the boys learn of the ruthlessness and violence of the Nazis. They see their Jewish classmates disappear forever, see families terrorized, and witness the brutal horrors of Kristallnacht, the Night of Broken Glass. The boys realize they must fight for a Germany free of Hitler, even though it will put their lives at risk, and so they launch a clandestine propaganda campaign against the regime. Will they carry on through the terror? Or will the Nazis destroy them before they can spread the truth? This novel is based on the true story of three German teens who had the courage to stand by their convictions--and paid the price. A Junior Library Guild Selection. |
