Loved reading this second in the series by the author who wrote Mog the cat books. About the author’s life as a refugee in England this time during the Second World War.

I really loved reading this and I feel like I've grown so close to Anna and her family. I can't even imagine how it must have been living during those times and this book did a great job of describing what it was like. I don't think this should be marketed as a kids book because I thought the blitz parts was very disturbing but i guess children have to read about these things too. Wish there was more of this story, I'm not ready to leave Anna yet!

super intéressant et vraiment bien écrit. j'espère que j'aurais jamais à vivre ce qu'elle vit (avec les nouvelles de guerre).
