Freiheit! - Andrea Grosso Ciponte - Bog

Great for reluctant readers: Graphic novels are an excellent way to engage younger and more reluctant readers, and this title appeals especially to those with an interest in history.For readers of the March trilogy: Freiheit! speaks into the social unrest of the moment, echoing student-led protest movements from Charlottesville to Hong Kong.Young heroes: This story of goodness and courage in the face of tremendous evil has been celebrated in print and film, but not yet in graphic novel format.Perennial topic: Interest in World War II, the Holocaust, and the roles of individuals caught in that epic struggle continues unabated.Resurgence of interest in The White Rose resistance movement: along with the 2005 film Sophie Scholl: The Final Days, in the last few years there has been a proliferation of books about this group, including White Rose by Kip Wilson, The White Rose Resists by Amanda Barratt, Long Live Freedom! by Peter Normann Waage, Sophie Scholl and the White Rose by Annette Dumbach, We Will Not Be Silent by Russell Freedman, and At the Heart of the White Rose by Hans and Sophie Scholl.
