This is an interesting and thought-provoking piece of work, though should not be taken as historical fact. Deedy's language is simple and rhythmic, relating what she calls in the notes "a story that should be told." Smrensen's period paintings serve almost as formal portraits of individual Danes living their lives in the face of the looming Nazi occupation. The most enduring is the legend of the yellow star, which symbolizes the loyalty and fearless spirit of the king and his people. The bravery of the Danes and their king during that dangerous time has inspired many legends. When Nazi soldiers occupied his country, King Christian X of Denmark committed himself to keeping all Danes safe from harm. But during World War II, Nazis used the star to segregate and terrorize the Jewish people. For centuries, the Star of David was a symbol of Jewish pride.
