Book Overview

Determined to make a difference in the war, Jesper refuses to stop fighting the Nazis in Carol Mata's "stirring account" of a young boy facing the dangers of World War II (Publishers Weekly).

In the sequel to Lisa's War, Jesper continues his work for the Danish resistance and recounts the dangers that led to his confinement in a German prison.

Determined to make a difference any way he can, Jesper begins to work for an underground press to help tell the truths about what is happening during the war. Simultaneously, frustrated with the state of their country, Stefan and Jesper join forces to fight the Nazis.

"Mata's extensive research, combined with powerful characterization and compelling narration, creates an intense, provocative novel." - Publishers Weekly
