Dear Mrs Bird by A.J. Pearce

4.0

I thought this was a lovely story. I was a little bemused by the style initially until I realised it was aimed at the children's market. The story, set in wartime London, follows the fate of Emmy who wants to be a Lady War Correspondent and applies to work at a newspaper. The Blitz is going on but life continues with love, arguments, and growing up. It's a very gentle tale and I would recommend it for 10-13 year olds.
