Description
This acclaimed story of WWII is rich in suspense, characterization, plot, and spiritual truth. Ten year-old Joris can hardly remember what life was like before the Germans took over Holland. Now there are air raids, neighbors that have become German informants, and rations for everything. However, his family still makes do as they run a mill called the Watchman. After he witnesses a plane being shot down, Joris gets his chance to help an RAF pilot, and the whole family gets involved in the resistance movement. A realistic, yet warm WWII story with a close-knit, caring family.
Publisher's Description of Winged Watchman
This acclaimed story of World War II is rich in suspense, characterization, plot and spiritual truth. Every element of occupied Holland is united in a story of courage and hope: a hidden Jewish child, an “underdiver,” a downed RAF pilot, an imaginative, daring underground hero, and the small things of family life which surprisingly carry on in the midst of oppression. The Verhagen family, who live in the old windmill called the Winged Watchman, are a memorable set of individuals whose lives powerfully demonstrate the resilience of those who suffer but do not lose faith.
