«La cruzada de los niños» is the historical novel by Peter Berling, published by Grijalbo Mondadori in hardback (416 pages, in Spanish).
In 1212, a young French shepherd preaches in Paris after an apparition of Jesus and gathers thousands of orphans and outcasts from across Europe to embark on a crusade to Jerusalem. The march becomes a journey of hardship, love, friendship and betrayal for children who trust that their faith will achieve what armies have not.
The German original, «Das Kreuz der Kinder» (2003), was translated into Spanish by Helga Pawlowsky. It is part of Grijalbo's Historical Novel collection.
For readers of historical fiction who want to learn about the 1212 Children's Crusade through anonymous characters.
