About this listen
A powerful look at an unforgettable era in history
"If we take these children, we can never betray them, no matter what the Nazis do."
During the German occupation of France, 20 French children were brought to a refuge in the mountains. One day a young man came to their school with a request: Could they take in, and hide, 10 Jewish refugee children?
Sister Gabriel spoke up. "The Nazis are looking for those children. If we take them we must never let on they are here. Do you understand?"
Of course the children understood - but how would they hide them if the Nazis came?
©1952, 1978 Claire Huchet Bishop (P)2018 Listening LibraryWhat the critics say
"Originally published in 1952, this story is set in German-occupied France during World War II. Twenty French schoolchildren and a Catholic nun put their own lives at risk by hiding 10 Jewish children from the Nazis. It is a never-to-be-forgotten saga with an ending that leaves readers cheering." (Mailbox Magazine)

Wonderful story of courage
My son and I were engaged the whole time. A heroic tale of children's courage.
