Popular young-adult novelist, Lois Lowry, tackles WWII historical fiction in this 1990 Newberry Medal winner. When Danes heard in 1943 that 7,000 Danish Jews were to be shipped to concentration camps, they mounted a resistance movement and that successfully evacuated all 7,000 safely to Sweden. The book details that true event through a fictional 10-year-old girl and her best friend.
