Product Description
Review
'For many children, narrative is one of the strong attractions of history and here it is used to good effect to demonstrate the varied ways in which individuals contributed to the war effort.' -- School Librarian Journal, Winter 2002 'Each story is relatively short and written in straightforward language, making the books accessible to young people with low reading stamina. The stories themselves are gripping with plenty of action... I would recommend these for school libraries...' -- School Librarian Journal 20021201
Product Description
The book contains nine short stories dealing with different aspects of life during World War II. Included is the remarkable survival story of future US President J F Kennedy, the story of the dambusters and a plotted assassination attempt on Hitler. Complete with glossary, further reading section and index.

Disappointing - Not What You Think
9 May 2012
Format:Hardcover|Amazon Verified Purchase
I thought this book was going to paint a portrait of Britain during the War - it's nothing but some nice photos - which you can get on the Net - with very bland script describing what every WW II buff already knows.
