He is thrilled by heroes, shields, swords and victories. But then his mother wakes him up on the 28th of October 1940: “Can’t you hear the sirens?”. Greece has just entered World War II. How is war like in reality? Petros lives the war, occupation and resistance together with his parents, his sister, his grandfather and his turtle, Theodore. We follow him on his long walk through all the real adventures that take place between October 1940 and October 1944, when Greece was liberated. “It is a book well worth having on school and public library shelves and deserves wide readership in the 10 to 13 age range.” Michael Thomas, The Times Educational Supplement 62 Rights sold: France GRAPHIC NOVELS
