Présentation de l'éditeur

Rosa Blanca fue el nombre de un grupo de la resistencia alemana durante la Segunda Guerra Mundial, algunos de cuyos componentes fueron ejecutados por los nazis. Rosa Blanca es, por lo tanto, el nombre simbólico de esa niña que un día sigue las huellas de un camión cargado de personas y descubre un campo de concentración nazi. Sus constantes visitas al campo para llevar alimentos a los niños judíos se ve truncada por una bala de un soldado alemán, para el cual “el enemigo está en todas partes”. Premios obtenidos: -Manzana de Oro de la Bienal de Bratislava (Checoslovaquia). -American Library Association’s Mildred L. Batchelder Award (EE.UU.) -Premio de la Paz Gustav Heinemann para libros infantiles y Juveniles (Alemania) -Premio “Los diez mejores libros para niños”, declarado por unanimidad de los tres jurados (niños, bibliotecarios y especialistas) del Banco del Libro (Caracas).
