(4) 4-6 In 1941, twelve-year-old Karl is an enthusiastic member of the German Hitler Youth. When their father dies in the war, Karl begins to question everything--especially once he learns that older brother Stefan is in an anti-Hitler youth group. Karl's realizations become repetitive and the Gestapo-officer villain feels like a movie stereotype, but the book offers an interesting perspective and lots of action.
