The Story of a German Girl In Holland During WWII 

Janna Oster is a proud, young German girl living near the Black Forest during World War II.  With her famous parents entertaining in Holland, Janna is all alone and turns to the Hitler Youth group where she was taught to never question the authority of Hitler, the supremacy of the Aryan race and to view the Jewish race as inferior.  Janna's life is turned upside down when her parents summon her to Holland.  It is there that the young girl begins to question the validity of Hitler's teachings and begins to realize that no one deserves the cruel treatment being shown to the Jews in Holland (and across Europe).  While living in a borrowed house, Janna discovers a secret room with a dangerous occupant!  Janna meets Sef van Gelder, a member of the Dutch resistance who is helping Jews escape.  Will Janna reveal Sef and his secret, destroying the hope of Hitler's many victims?  Hilda van Stockum never fails to bring us a powerful and adventurous story!  Great supplement for your studies on World War II.  (Paperback,  221 pages, Ages 14 & up)
