If we take them we must never let on that they are here. Do you understand?"<p>Of course the children understood - but how would they hide them if the Nazis came?</p><h3>Mailbox Magazine - Deborah Zink Roffino</h3><p>Originally published in 1952, this story is set in German-occupied France during World War II.
