Description
It is 1942 and the German army has laid siege on Leningrad. No one can get out, no food can get in, and the temperature has long remained below zero. Hunger has gripped the people of Leningrad, and 12-year-old Boris Morenko is terrified that his mother will starve. Weaving a tale of bravery, friendship, and survival, this compassionate and uplifting novel documents Boris and his best friend Nadia's attempt to outwit death in a desperate search for food behind enemy lines.
