About this product

Product Information

Without the yellow star to point them out, the Jews looked like any other Danes. In 1940, Nazis occupied Denmark and King Christian X, beloved amongst his people, had to find some way to resist their overwhelming power. When the order went out that all Jews must wear a yellow star on their clothes, the king had an idea that might just work. But it would take the faith and commitment of all Danes. In this retelling of a World War II legend, New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy poignantly remind us of the power of a good, wise leader. Paired with Henri S rensen's arresting full-color portraits, this is a powerful and dignified story of heroic justice.

Reviews
"...interesting and thought-provoking...." -- School Library Journal "...delightful... a perfect introduction for young readers to the difficult story of the Holocaust. The story is surprisingly moving because it is told so simply.... suspenseful and inspiring.... and excellent addition to the many recent books on tolerance and human rights." -- Five Owls "Professional storyteller Deedy retells this legend in unadorned, effective language that lends currency to history.... The spare but resonant storytelling is given an authoritative setting in Danish illustrator Sorensen's paintings; his formal style and balanced compositions reinforce the mood and dignity of the story.... this tale will find heavy use as a readaloud and discussion starter, whether the topic is truth, history, heroism, or moral dilemmas." -- Bulletin for the Center for Children's Books
