Amazing book with a real heart warming quality. Just the book I needed at this time of my life.
This follows the journey of Gertie and Hedy, a Jewish girl sent to England for her safety.
The book deals with themes of the camaraderie during the Blitz as well how literature helps us escape life, it certainly helped me escape for 24 hours.
Highly recommend this book.
