Norwegian title: Leseløve nivå 3 - Kampen om tungtvannet på 1-2-3

Illustrated by Helena Lindholm

Join us back to World War II with THE WAR FOR HEAVY WATER IN 1-2-3!

Imagine that the Nazis wanted to build an atomic bomb, but a small group of brave Norwegians were determined to stop them! With skis on their feet, weapons in their hands, and a secret plan, they had to blow up a factory in the middle of the icy mountains. The factory produced "heavy water" – a mysterious liquid that could change the entire war!

This is the story of incredible sabotage operations, dangerous survival on the plateau, and why brave people can change world history. You'll learn all about the heroes, the cunning enemies, and all the dramatic moments.

An easy-to-read and action-packed book that brings history to life! Perfect for anyone who loves excitement, heroic deeds, and true stories!
