Interweaving his own narrative with the recollections of Knud himself, here is Phil Hoose's inspiring story of these young war heroes"-- $c Provided by publisher. 600 10 $a Pedersen, Knud, $d 1925-2014 $v Juvenile literature 610 20 $a Churchill-klubben (A©lÌborg, Denmark) $x History $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a World War, 1939-1945 $x Underground movements $z Denmark $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Boys $x Political activity $z Denmark $v Juvenile literature $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Middle school students $x Political activity $z Denmark $v Juvenile literature $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Heroes $z Denmark $v Juvenile literature $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Sabotage $z Denmark $x History $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature 650 0 $a Government, Resistance to $z Denmark $x History $y 20th century $v Juvenile literature 651 0 $a Denmark $x History $y German occupation, 1940-1945 $v Juvenile literature 941 $a 1 952 $l ZYPE837 $d 20170401010517.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=B7762CE216A011E79DE0D5C5DAD10320Initiate Another SILO Locator Search
