There's a good World War II yarn here set on the Franco/ Spanish border. The villagers of Lescun band together to spirit 12 Jewish children over the border under the eyes of the German soldiers. Michael Morpurgo has created credible characters in a realistic setting to produce a compelling and heart-warming story. Ideal for kids who like a gripping read.
