At the outset of World War II, Denmark did not resist German
occupation. Deeply ashamed of his nation's leaders,
fifteen-year-old Knud Pedersen resolved with his brother and a
handful of schoolmates to take action against the Nazis if the
adults would not. Naming their secret club after the fiery British
leader, the young patriots in the Churchill Club committed
countless acts of sabotage, infuriating the Germans, who eventually
had the boys tracked down and arrested. But their efforts were not
in vain: the boys' exploits and eventual imprisonment helped spark
a full-blown Danish resistance. Interweaving his own narrative with
the recollections of Knud himself, here is Phil Hoose's inspiring
story of these young war heroes.
