Winter in Wartime

(2) 4-6 In the 1944 Germany-occupied Netherlands, fifteen-year-old Michiel finds himself caught up in a dangerous situation involving an injured English pilot. Although the tone of this novel, originally published in the Netherlands in 1978, is straightforward and subdued, the devastating effects of the Occupation are cumulative, leaving readers with a strong sense of the courage necessary for survival during wartime.
