Narrative To Books The Boy Who Dared

A youth in Nazi Germany tells the truth about Hitler. Bartoletti has taken one episode from her Newbery Honor Book, Hitler Youth, and fleshed it out into a full novel. When 16-year-old Helmut Hubner listens to the BBC news on an illegal short-wave radio, he quickly discovers Germany is lying to the people. But when he tries to expose the truth with leaflets, he's tried for treason. Sentenced to death and waiting in a jail cell, Helmut's story emerges in a series of flashbacks that show his growth from a naive child caught up in the patriotism of the times, to a sensitive and mature young man who thinks for himself.

Rate Of Books The Boy Who Dared

I am very thankful to this author for bringing this hero out in the open. I know some people say they are tired of books about WWII but I think there could never be enough..millions of innocent people and heros lost their lives and I want to read all of their storys ..they need to be heard. Helmuth is my new hero at only 17 he stood up and did something to help the innocent. The only thing I dont like is when shes talking about him being scared to die while he was waiting in his cell I think she

This story resonates so much because it's based on a true account of a young man named Helmuth during World War II. He is a patriotic German and can see why Hitler could be good for the country. Just like many others he gets sweeped up with the hysteria of a new hope for the broken down Germany. Slowly but surely though he comes to see what the whole regime is really about.The book flips perspectives from the present to memories Helmuth has leading up to why he is in jail. The voice of the

Very interesting take on what it was like to be an unsupportive German in WWII, and to learn that its based on a true story! Remarkable.

Straight-forward, yet wonderfully told. Brief and accessible, which makes it an ideal choice for school curriculum at virtually any grade level.

Read this to two of my classes during our historical fiction unit. What a whirlwind of emotions felt for Helmuth. Crazy that this was based on a true story. I enjoyed how the historical information was woven throughout the story, as well as the author switching back and forth between past and present for Helmuth. It was nice to get his thoughts as he sat in his prison cell. Great read!

As I was reading, the author told the story of Helmuth's life by talking about his life as a young adult and the rewinds too when he was little. The story started off when Helmuth was all grown up and in prison, and then shortly afterwards the story rewinds to when he was younger, then after couple pages it rewinds back to when he's in prison. I really like this style of writing because it interests me how the time of the story constantly shifts from past to present and from present to past.She

This book was a great follow up to Hitler Youth (same author). It is the story,made into a novel, of one of the real-life characters from Hitler Youth. Helmuth Hubener was a 16 year old boy who, along with his friends, did what they could to go against Hitler. He paid with his life. I am sure he didn't think at the time, that people would now consider him a hero, but he most definitely was. I like the way she addressed his struggle with his religious belief in "obeying, honoring and sustaining
