A review by bardicbramley
Bruno and Frida by Tony Bradman
4.0
A sweet, simple story of a young German boy at the tail end of World War 2, rescuing a dog who had been strapped with explosives and surviving through the allied forces' occupation as the war ended.
It could be just another WW2 story for children, but I managed to make its mark.
What I really enjoyed about it was the final time jump, of Bruno reflecting back on his experiences as an older man, and the comparisons made to the journeys of Syrian refugees at the time.
