The boy who dared




I just got this book from my kid's book fair. It was a good choice on my part. I give it a PG rating and *****. This book is based on the true story of a Mormon boy in Nazi Germany during World War 2. Helmuth was the youngest person executed by the Nazis. He payed the ultimate price for standing up for what he believed in.

I read a similar book years ago, called "Before the Blood Tribunal" - also a true story about LDS boys in Nazi Germany.
