Description
It's 1939, and for Georg, son of an English academic living in Germany is a time when his teacher measures the pupils' heads to see which of them have the most 'Aryan'- shaped heads. But when a university graduation ceremony turns into a pro-Nazi demonstration, Georg is smuggled out of Germany to war-torn London and then to Australia where he must forget his past and who he is in order to survive.The companion book for 'Hitler's daughter', 'Pennies for Hitler' examines the life of a child during World War II, from a different perspective.
