It is 1943 and, to Annemarie Johansen, life in Copenhagen is a complicated mix of ordinary home and school life, food shortages, and constant presence of Nazi soldiers. Bravery seems a vague virtue - one possessed by dragon-slaying knights in the bedtime stories she tells her younger sister, Kirsti. But Annemarie's best friend Ellen is a Jew, and, all too soon, as the German troops begin their campaign to locate all the Jews of Denmark, she herself is called upon for courage. Ages 11+
