“Although this is a book for younger readers; it is so well written that adults will enjoy it as well. It is of special interest to people of Finnish background and illustrates "sisu" which Finnish people use to describe that character trait and inner strength which overcomes what seems to be impossible obstacles. It is a piece of history that is important not just to people of a Finnish background but can teach us all some important truths about how precious our democracy is.”
