Story1
The true story behind the world's most beloved children's book is a story the world was never supposed to know. In June 1940, as Hitler's armies closed on Paris, two German-Jewish refugees fled the city on makeshift bicycles assembled from junkyard scrap. Strapped to a luggage rack, wrapped in oilcloth, was a five-pound manuscript about a mischievous, tailless monkey — the book the world would come to know as Curious George.

Poland, 1943. 'We owe you our lives.' The elderly woman clasps my hands before climbing the attic ladder to hide with her family. I am filled with anger, sadness and fear, but I can't give in to my tears now. Not when this isn't the only secret I'm keeping from the German soldiers next door... When German soldiers take over the neighbouring farm in her little village, Aneta tries to pretend life with her four-year-old son, Janek, is continuing as normal. No one can ever know about the Jewish doctor's family she's hiding.
