This novel is based on a true story experienced by Akila Couloumbis, one of the authors. What he lived through as a 12-year-old boy in Greece in 1941, is more than just a story. It is an incredible accomplishment. He and his cousins prove they can be counted on in this time of war, even at such a young age. Petros and his older brother Zola, carry out secret missions disguised as boyhood games right under the noses of the German soldiers -a brave feat for any young man. Students interested in the history of World War II, will enjoyed this historical fiction book. It is slow paced at times, but will keep you turning pages until the end.
