The story begins dramatically with the sinking of the Bismarck, leaving Walter, a young German survivor, as a prisoner of war. He is sent to live with a British host family, a challenging adjustment in an enemy country. Here, Walter forms an unexpected and profound friendship with ten-year-old Grace, bridging the divides of war and nationality. Their bond grows, offering solace and understanding amidst the conflict.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eAs the war draws to a close, Walter must return to Germany, leading to an emotional farewell with Grace. The poignant question remains: will their paths ever cross again?

Morpurgo masterfully explores themes of war, peace, friendship, and the enduring human connection, making Little Manfred a powerful read for young readers interested in history and human resilience.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eKey Details\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/strong\u003e Michael Morpurgo\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/strong\u003e HarperCollins Publishers\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eFormat:\u003c\/strong\u003e Paperback, 176 pages\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/strong\u003e English\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublished:\u003c\/strong\u003e 2013\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eISBN:\u003c\/strong\u003e 9780007491636\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003cp\u003eOrder from BookClub.com.mt — Malta and Gozo's online bookstore.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"HarperCollins Publishers","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":53959178977613,"sku":"9780007491636","price":11.99,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0958\/3627\/5021\/files\/Little_Manfred_PB.jpg?v=1779390063","url":"https:\/\/bookclub.com.mt\/products\/little-manfred","provider":"BookClub.com.mt","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
