"Hitler's Canary" by Sandi Toksvig tells the story of a brave young girl named Anna, living in Nazi-occupied Denmark during World War II. When the Nazis begin rounding up Jews, Anna's family becomes involved in the resistance movement. She finds an unexpected companion in a canary, which symbolizes hope and freedom amidst the chaos of war. The narrative highlights themes of courage, friendship, and the fight against tyranny, as Anna and her loved ones navigate danger and uncertainty to protect their friends and maintain their humanity. Through Anna’s eyes, the story explores the profound impact of war on ordinary lives. [Generated by language model - please report any problems].
