Time for Courage

About this book

During WWII, when the Nazis hunt Jewish children, the kids' only hope is help from the Dutch Resistance. But these brave volunteers are outgunned, outmanned, and all they have is each other.

In this sequel to Hunger Winter, thirteen -year-old Dirk and his family move to a farm near Utrecht, Netherlands, in January of 1945. When the Nazis focus on capturing Jewish children to send to gas chambers, Dirk's family intervenes. Their methods include providing ration cards and finding families to hide Jewish children and teens.

With edge-of-your-seat action and suspense, the reader follows Dirk and his family as they work with the Dutch Resistance to protect the children and battle the zeal and determination of the Gestapo to find the children and send them to their deaths.

This World War II historical fiction novel for kids features:

  • Edge-of-your-seat excitement and danger set against the backdrop of the Holocaust
  • Historically accurate accounts of WWII events not normally covered in other books
  • Maps of the Netherlands to help parents and teachers prepare lessons for children about the history of WWII

This middle-grade book is an adventure to be read again and again, a story that should not be forgotten.
