The Little Riders is a wonderful little story of bravery and freedom in the midst of WWII. Johanna lives with her grandparents in Holland and they are charged with caring for the riders that are part of the town clock. When the Nazis take over their city, they are faced with many challenges, including protecting the historic riders from being taken and melted down. Will they be able to save the riders or will the Nazis take the pride of the city?
An excellent read to share with children a glimpse of what happened during the terrible war. My children really enjoyed this book. The story telling is simple and clear yet still engaging for all ages.
5 stars for this children's classic
