With an entire nation blindly following an evil leader, where did a handful of students find the courage to resist? The university students who formed the White Rose, an undercover resistance movement in Nazi Germany, knew that doing so could cost them their lives. But some things are worth dying for. The White Rose printed and distributed leaflets to expose Nazi atrocities and wake up their fellow citizens. The Gestapo caught and executed them. But the White Rose was not silenced. Their heroism continues to inspire new generations of resisters.

Feb 23, 2021Andrea Ciponte's retelling of the White Rose is exactly the sort of graphic novel that is needed in the modern age. Amidst political strife, social injustice, and economic toil, stories like this not only can give new generations of activists heroes to emulate, but also gives readers and history a window into the past for them to look through, see, and learn from. Let this book not only be a new addition to anyone's bookshelf, let it also embolden and empower all who want to make a difference in the world for future generations. Read Full Review

Mar 02, 2021I am a lover of history, and to read history is to be aware of the world around us. This is a graphic novel that will absolutely become part of my collection. It is one I would recommend across the age range. Andrea Grosso Ciponte has given readers a time-frame in history that features voices that must be heard. That give hope. After reading Freiheit!: The White Rose, I did research on my own. I found that there is a monument to those who were part of The White Rose. I can confidently say that this is a book I would recommend reading. Every time. Read Full Review
