About the story

In the late 1930's, Helmuth Hübener, is a young boy living in Germany. As Hitler and the Nazi Party rise to power, Helmuth begins to question the Nazis intentions and their control of Germany. Although he fears the Nazis, he can't stand what is happening to his country and wants to do something about it. If he dares, will he be able to endure the consequences?

My opinion

WOW, this is an incredible story. I can't imagine the amount of courage it must have taken for Helmuth to take such an incredible risk.
