Overview

Translated from the German by Elizabeth D. Crawford. Based on the author's own wartime experiences, a gripping and affecting novel of friendship between twelve-year-old Thomas and a man who has lost his leg and asks to be called Crutches. "Has the intensity of an adventure story; it is equally remarkable for its development of theme without sacrificing believability of sense of story....Poignant."--Horn Book.
