Il custode di Elias. Il toccante legame tra un bambino ebreo e il suo cane nella Germania del 1945. Ediz. ad alta leggibilità

Germany, 1945. Elias is almost eight years old. To protect him, his parents never told him what happens to people like them, forced to wear a yellow star on the arm. One day the war reaches their house and climbs the stairs of those buildings spared until that moment. Men in uniform knock on the door and order everyone out. Elias is not afraid: his mother has taught him what to do. Together they have rehearsed it several times, as if it were a game. Therefore, he manages to hide himself through a trapdoor in the floor, holding his breath while his parents were dragged away. Suddenly everything is quiet. Elias is still and silent with his dog, Caleb, to whom his mother entrusted him before she was captured. Elias makes a pact with him: leave as soon as possible to find out his parents. Caleb smells danger. It cannot back down or stop his little friend, but it can be his guardian during a journey back home that will change their lives forever.
