FOUR STARRED REVIEWS!

Safiyyah loathes the brutal Nazi occupation of Paris, even though her Muslim identity keeps her safe—or, at least, safer than her Jewish neighbors. Violence lurks in the streets, her best friend has fled, and even her place of refuge—the library—has turned shadowy and confusing, as the invaders fear the power of books. Safiyyah longs to strike back and hates feeling powerless to help her Jewish friends. Worse yet, her father—who taught her to always fight injustice—is acting strangely and doing nothing to help them either.

Or is he?

Unraveling the mystery of her father’s odd behavior draws Safiyyah deep into the heart of the perilous underground resistance to the Nazis, where her bravery is put to the ultimate test.

“A heartfelt story of the unsung, real-life Muslim heroes of the Resistance in World War II, whose courage and humanity transcended religious differences.” —Alan Gratz, New York Times bestselling author of Refugee and Heroes

As she joins the fight, Safiyyah must ask herself how much she’s willing to risk for what’s right?

Based on a True Story: Inspired by the incredible history of the Grand Mosque of Paris, whose members risked everything to save Jewish lives during the Nazi occupation. Muslim Heroes of WWII: Discover the unsung, real-life heroes of the Resistance whose compassion and courage transcended religious differences. World War II Historical Fiction for Kids: A suspenseful, accessible, and heartfelt introduction to a little-known chapter of the war, perfect for middle grade readers ages 8-12. A Brave Young Heroine: Eleven-year-old Safiyyah loathes the brutal occupation of her city and must find the courage to fight injustice, even when she feels powerless.
