A classic for over sixty years, The Silver Sword presents the harsh reality of wartime life for a Polish family. KS2 students will be gripped by the adventures, setbacks and triumphs of the Balicki children as they make their way across war-torn Europe in search of their parents, and there are plenty of colourful characters and situations to inspire drama work in the classroom.
