Fing's War

(1) 4-6 Translated by John Nieuwenhuizen. This sequel to Nine Open Arms follows the fortunes and adventures of the Boon family, in 1938 Netherlands, from the viewpoint of the young teen daughter Fing. Lindelauf does a stunning job, in this classic episodic family story, of showing the difficult relationships that war creates. Played out in a suspenseful action-filled plot, this is a welcome and distinctive addition to WWII literature for young people. Glos.
