Breaking Down the Wall

Borzoi School Book Club Review:

Despite the dark themes and topics, this book is about teamwork in its most sincere form. It’s clear that this book is a shout out to stand up for what you believe in through and through. In this book, Maximillian Jones shows that everything can still be O.K even if it’s not perfect. The characters, Lili And Greta are passionate about everything they do. I, for one, passionately believe that we need more authors like Maximillian Jones.

A gripping story of power, protest and unlikely friendship for readers 11+, perfect for fans of Alex Rider and CHERUB. Second in a duology, set a generation after The Boy Behind The Wall. East Berlin, 1989.

Thirteen-year-old Greta feels stifled by her parents. Her dad, Jakob, is in prison and her mum is full of secrets. Greta longs for freedom and the truth.

Desperate to take a stand, she begins to circulate anti-communist fliers and graffiti through her school and neighbourhood. She is arrested and starts to question who she can trust. But the Stasi are weaker than ever.

Change is coming and Greta is determined to be a part of it. The Berlin Wall is about to come down, but will it be too late for Greta, Jakob and their family?
