A powerful look at an unforgettable era in history<br><br>“If we take these children, we can never betray them, no matter what the Nazis do.”<br><br> During the German occupation of France, twenty French children were brought to a refuge in the mountains. One day a young man came to their school with a request: Could they take in, and hide, ten Jewish refugee children?<br><br> Sister Gabriel spoke up. “The Nazis are looking for those children. If we take them we must never let on they are here. Do you understand?”<br><br> Of course the children understood—but how would they hide them if the Nazis came?
