Great Escapes #1: Nazi Prison Camp Escape: A True WWII Adventure About Survival and Freedom for Children (Ages 8-12) - Softcover
Book 1 of 6: Great Escapes
Synopsis
Are you ready for some
of the most exciting, death-defying escape stories ever told? Perfect for fans
of the I Survived series, the first installment in a brand-new, edge-of-your-seat
series based on real events!
In spring 1942, Royal Air Force pilot Bill Ash’s plane was
shot down by Germans, who captured and eventually brought him to Stalag Luft
III, a notorious camp for prisoners of war. The Germans boasted that the
camp—which was isolated, heavily guarded, and surrounded by wire fences—was
escape proof.
But Ash was ready to prove them wrong. He, along with other
POWs, would dig tunnels, hide in shower drains, or jump on trucks—all in the
name of freedom. Because resisting the Germans was their mission, and escaping was
their duty.
From reluctant reader
to total bookworm, each book in this page-turning series—featuring fascinating
bonus content and captivating illustrations—will leave you excited for the next
adventure!
