Rose Blanche tells the story of a young German girl who doesn't understand the politics and dangers that come along with the Second World War. She sees the tanks and soldiers move through her town every day, but doesn't know what they are for. One day she follows them and discovers a terrible truth. With her loving soul she tries her best to help. Until one day: "Shadows were moving between the trees... Soldiers saw the enemy everywhere."

Rose Blanche was the name of a German activist group during the Second World War. These young people chose to see, and try to change, what others chose to ignore.

I really enjoyed this book because it explores the issue of war in greater depth than many children's books. It is for all ages from six and up. I recommend reading this book with your child to help answer any questions they may have.
