Weak and wounded, they needed aid. Help came in the form of countless small craft, steered by brave young men, in the legendary armada of \"little ships\" that sailed aross the English Channel. Many people wanted to be a part of the rescue mission. Here is the story of a girl who was so determined to help that she disguised herself as a boy to blend in with the men as they sailed toward Dunkirk.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Louise Borden\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0689853963\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780689853968\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Margaret K.
