Description

The inspirational true story of how twenty-two-year-old Henny Sinding courageously helped smuggle hundreds of Jewish families in occupied Denmark to safety in Sweden during the Holocaust.

A middle grade nonfiction novel-in-verse by award-winning author Susan Hood. It wouldn’t be easy, but they had to try. It was their only chance to survive. In 1943, Henny Sinding, only twenty-two years old, and the crew of Gerda lll, a lighthouse supply boat, risked everything to smuggle their Jewish compatriots across the Øresund strait to safety in Sweden during World War ll.

In Henny’s words, “It was the right thing to do so we did it.

Simple as that.” But what happened when their operation’s cover was blown and it was Henny’s turn to escape?This incredible true story in-verse about courage, community, humanity, and hope is perfect for fans of Lifeboat 12, Alias Anna, and Alan Gratz. Includes extensive back matter with primary sources, additional information, further reading, and photographs.  A JUNIOR LIBRARY GUILD GOLD STANDARD SELECTION!
