Number the Stars shared by caisa

Number the Stars by Lois Lowry explains how two families living in Denmark are very supportive of each other. The Johansens fight to protect their close Jewish friends, the Rosens. Nazis invade Denmark, which causes all Jewish-run facilities and shops to be closed, and all Jews to leave the country. The Johansens do all they can to protect the Rosens, even after the parents of Ellen Rosen had to evacuate. The two are reunited, and eventually sail to safety.
