From the Critics

"Here is a book that will introduce children to the moving story of Vedran Smailovic, a real, present-day hero whose spirit I greatly admire. His spontaneous act of courage can be an inspiration to us all. It shows that an individual can make a difference in this world." -- Yo-Yo Ma
