Résumé
Mendel is twelve in 1852 when the czar's soldiers come to his small Ukrainian town looking for Jewish conscripts. Knowing his parents will risk their lives to protect him, he runs away. He is helped by a mysterious freedom fighter… who pairs him with another fugitive, Dovid, the town bully. Their dangerous trip to the Hungarian border teaches Mendel what his father meant when he said "only the closed circle can keep us whole." For grades 4-7 and older readers
