Product Description

Review
" 'Highly readable' School Librarian. 'Most beautifully told' Leon Garfield, Guardian"

Product Description
It's wartime Britain, and the bombs are falling. Pip has been evacuated to the country where she meets a new friend. They become aware of another evacuee who is not fitting in so well. The relations he is staying with are stigmatised by the locals as enemy aliens and possible spies. When bombs fall actually in the village, an angry mob descends on this hapless family. It transpires that they are refugees from similar behaviour in continental Europe, and this is a terrifying scenario for them to have to relive.

5.0 out of 5 stars Exciting and different, 28 May 2009
I enjoyed this book hugely, and it shows a completely different view of the war, not to mention asking very important questions about the way we see other people in wartime - but in a completely unpreachy way. It's a very good, exciting read, quite unputdownable, with engaging characters, and I'd recommend it to anyone buying books for their kids, who I'm certain will love it!
