The Yellow Star by Carmen Agra Deedy
Carmen Agra Deedy's award-winning retelling of a powerful World War I legend.
Without the yellow star to point them out, the Jews looked like any other Danes.
In 1940, Nazis occupied Denmark and King Christian X, beloved amongst his people, has to find some way to resist their overwhelming power. When the order goes out that all Jews must wear a yellow star on their clothes, the king has an idea that might just work. But it would take the faith and commitment of all Danes.
In this retelling of a World War I legend, New York Times best-selling author Carmen Agra Deedy poignantly remind us of the power of a good, wise leader. Paired with Henri S rensen's arresting full-color portraits, this is a powerful and dignified story of heroic justice.
