It's Christmas Eve 1914.
A group of tired soldiers start singing Stille Nacht. Soldiers the other side of No Man's Land respond with Silent Night. The next day, soldiers on both sides put down their weapons and celebrate the spirit of Christmas Day with a friendly football match.
 
In the sequel to the Where The Poppies Now Grow, The Christmas Truce  is based on that remarkable moment in history and finds soldiers Ben and Ray shaking hands in friendship with Karl and Lars.
 
Written with touching sensitivity and brought to life through powerful illustrations the story is a celebration of the human spirit and marks the time when, for one day, peace found a place.
