Over at Books for Kids blog, Instapundit's mom has a recommendation for a book that I just loved as a kid.

It is late winter of 1940 in the Norwegian village of Riswyk, and although the children still enjoy the fun of a daily sled run down the local mountain, the threat of the German invasion hangs over the town like a cloud...

Read the whole thing.

It's called Snow Treasure by Marie McSwigan. It's rated for grades 3-7, but depending on the person, older kids might really enjoy it too. I believe I was about 9 years old when I first read it. And quite honestly, I want to get hold of a copy and read it again. If you have kids in that age range - give them a story of courage and daring - a story to lift their spirits. Give them a story to inspire.
