Mark picked up a black and white kitten with four white paws and a white nose. ‘We’ll have this one,’ he said. ‘No,’ said Carol, picking up a grey tabby, ‘we’re having this one, and I’ll call it Fluff because it’s so soft.’ But choosing a kitten soon turns into an argument, and the argument nearly turns into disaster!

One of the most exciting series of a master story teller about the German occupation of The Netherlands during the emotional time of the Second World War (1940-1945).
The country was occupied by the German military forces. The nation’s freedom was destroyed by the foreign men in power. Violence, persecutions and executions were the order of the day, and the main target of the enemy was the destruction of the Christian way of life. In that time the resistance movement of underground fighters became very active. People from all ages and levels joined in and tried to defend the Dutch Christian heritage as much as possible.
The above mentioned book show us how older and younger people were involved in that dangerous struggle. It often was a life and death battle. Every page of this series is full of tension. The stories give an accurate and very vivid impression of that difficult and painful time. These books should also be in the hands of our young people. They are excellent instruments to understand the history of their own country and to learn the practical value of their own confession.
From the Publisher:

His job in the Russian police was to inflict pain and terror on Christians . . . and he did it well.
Sergei Kourdakov, who led attack raids for Russia's secret police, points to the place off British Columbia, Canada where he escaped from a Russian naval ship to begin his search for the faith of those he once persecuted.
Laugh aloud as you enjoy the tales of the Peterkin family. They’re a large and smart group, but with not a lick of common sense between them. They’d raise the roof to fit a tall Christmas tree, and not go for a ride because they forgot to unhitch the horse.
For more than 3,000 years, Egypt was a great civilization that thrived along the banks of the Nile River. But when its cities crumbled to dust, Egypt’s culture and the secrets of its hieroglyphic writings were also lost.
