SynopsisFacing The Lion is an inspiring autobiographical account of a young, non-Jewish girl standing up for her beliefs in the face of overwhelming pressure to conform to the Nazi propaganda machines. Simone refuses to accept the Nazi party and her simple acts of defiance lead her to be persecuted by her school and local officials, and ignored by friends. She is put in a harsh reform school until the end of the war.

PLEASE, read and realize the strength of our young ones.
Our children are amazing and vulnerable, especially in this uncertain world. This little girl looked A. Hitler in the face LITERALLY and shows what true faith, character and conviction look like. And she must do it without her parents for the most part. She begins to show her integrity at an age so young she doesn't even realize that's what she does. Simone L. will give every parent pause and I believe ENCOURAGEMENT that we CAN give our children more than we realize when we give them true faith, when we see truth and show them how to see and reason on it for themselves, to have strength in their convictions. Trust in themselves and their God. I have borrowed this book many times and now I will finally own my own copy. You will not forget her. (And without the need for vulgar or sensational narratives.). I do recommend the hardcover unabridged after seeing the short paperback copy I bought for my son. Go to the library if you need to, but read this book.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Facing the lion
This is a compelling story of a young person who was successful in keeping integrity to her God and defying Nazi indoctrination. I am one of Jehovah's Witnesses but recommend it to anyone who believes that truth and good will always triumph over evil and prejudice and fanatical nationalism.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Integrity in the face of an evil authority
It’s an eye opening story about a you g girl following her bible based moral compass despite pressure to compromise with an evil authority. It shows what what it means to have integrity even when the consequences of it are life threatening, even when there is no support or validation from society only from your God.Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht

Facing The Lion
This book really builds your faith in Jehovah when you see what his people had to go through but how he helped them to endure. Their faith is one to be imitated!Bestätigter Kauf: JaArtikelzustand: Gebraucht
