Über die Grenze

"Norway under German occupation in 1942. Ten-year-old Daniel and his little sister Sarah are Jews and have to flee across the border to Sweden, where their father is waiting. But the escape helpers are arrested, and two Norwegian children step in: ten-year-old Gerda, who has just read "The Three Musketeers" and is ready for any adventure, and her brother Otto. It becomes a life-and-death adventure for the four children. SPIEGEL bestselling author Maja Lunde portrays the four children authentically: in quarrels and defiance, lightheartedness and adventurousness. In an impressive way, she makes this important topic accessible to younger children as well.
