My newest book, Allies, tells the story of that momentous day from the viewpoint of six different young people involved in the Normandy invasion, from soldiers landing on the beaches to French citizens living under Nazi occupation.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eOne of those characters, Samira Zidane, is a French Algerian girl who is part of the Resistance. She plays a big role in Allies, but there was more to her story that I couldn't fit in the book. The free book you hold in your hands, Resist, is the rest of Samira's story! Samira is one of my favorite characters from Allies, and I loved the chance to dive back into her life and her adventures on D-Day as she goes on a daring rescue mission to find her mom.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eResist is a companion story to Allies. You and your students can read it before or after Allies, or all by itself.

And both stories are testaments to the idea, perhaps never proven more definitively than on D-Day, that we are stronger when we work together.\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eSincerely,\u003c\/span\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cspan\u003eAlan Gratz\u003c\/span\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"LilJoy","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":45082571341903,"sku":null,"price":399.0,"currency_code":"PKR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0704\/9343\/8031\/files\/RESIST_by_ALAN_GRATZ.png?v=1776076412","url":"https:\/\/liljoy.pk\/products\/resist-a-story-of-d-day-by-alan-gratz","provider":"Liljoy","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
