About this eBook

On May 10th, 1940, Nazi Germany attacked France, Belgium, the Netherlands, and Luxembourg. Their advance was swift, and led to the fall of France just six weeks later. In the fictional French village of Pontain-L'Écluse, 13-year-old François is shocked to see his fellow villagers—and even some of his family members—accept this occupation and submit to the laws and behavior of the German invaders. Determined to thwart the enemy, he enlists his friend Eusèbe to help sabotage the Nazis and motivate his village to unite against them. A fascinating tale of the Resistance and of actions taken by its youngest activitsts, inspired by true stories.

About the author

Benoît Ers was born in Liège (Belgium) in 1971. After living in the Ivory Coast for a number years, he moved to France, where he attended art school. Though only briefly, as he dropped out after six months to take a job at Marsu Productions. He then returned to Liège, setting up his own studio as a freelance illustrator. Around the same time, he started out as an illustrator for the comics weekly "Spirou." There he met Dugomier (Vincent Lodewick), who would go on to become his friend and longtime working partner. Over the years, the two have given rise to series such as "Muriel et Boulon" (Le Lombard), "Les Démons d'Alexia" (Dupuis), and "Hell School" (Le Lombard; Europe Comics in English). More recently, they joined to create the engrossing saga "Les Enfants de la Résistance" (Le Lombard; "Children of the Resistance," Europe Comics), both a critical and popular success.
