I loved this book. This is a heartfelt story of love and hope. Ray will always have my heart . This book proves that your first love will always be your one true love. Nellie is so strong and brave and is the must caring older sister.

Good story about wartime accident that might not be widely known  about if you don’t live in the UK. Sad, but heartwarming at the same time. 

I’m not sure, but I feel Millie Bobby Brown had a personally connection to the accident, and since it’s not widely known could be why the story is written. Good historical fiction mixed with real, truthful detail of the event.
