	Amanda Craig - Children's Literature, reviews
		The broadcaster and comedienne, Sandi Toksvig, is herself half Danish, and she has woven the tales her father told her about the occupation of Copenhagen with Edmund Burke’s famous dictum that “the one condition necessary for the triumph of evil is that good men do nothing.”
		That’s all.” Despite the comedy of a car run on cow-dung, Bamse’s family suffer for their courage and ingenuity (which includes building a false wall in their apartment behind which ten Jews hide while the flat is searched by Nazis), with his beloved mother becoming a morphine addict by the end.
		The tale is told mostly in dialogue; as in her performances, Toksvig comes at her subject with a refreshing robustness overlaid with a keen intelligence and genuine sympathy.
