505 0 $aAlthough the silver sword was only a paper knife, it became the symbol of hope and courage which kept the four deserted and starving children alive through the years of occupation, and afterwards on the exhausting and dangerous journey from war-torn Poland to Switzerland, where they hoped to find their parents.
