Description
Newbery medalist and nonfiction master Russell Freedman recounts the true story of the White Rose, a group of students in Nazi Germany who were active undercover agents of the resistance movement against Hitler and his regime. The narrative focuses on Hans and Sophie Scholl: their early adherence to Hitler Youth, their growing willingness to question, their leaflet campaign to encourage German youth to resist, and their eventual execution.
