Karl Stern never thought of himself as a fighter. But as a Jewish teen in World War II Germany, Karl must either put up his fists, or suffer a fate that he can’t even contemplate. Still, when Karl—a passionate cartoonist—first trades his pencils for boxing gloves, he isn’t thinking about the Nazis. He’s thinking about the teenage bullies at his school…and maybe impressing the girl he loves. But in 1940s Germany, things can change in an instant. And before Karl knows it, he’s fighting for something much bigger than a boxing title: his life.
