Bombs And Bunting

Rate this book
It is 1940 and when bombs begin to fall, the residents of Cedar Street take cover as best they can. Most of the children welcome the opportunities that the air raids offer and eagerly gather at a nearby bombsite to explore their new playground. However, when tragedy is narrowly averted, their hopes are dashed and plans turned upside down.
Their lives will never be the same again.
This is an emotional journey through the landscape of a Northern, war time childhood. Scarcities, bombing raids and evacuation are all set against the backdrop of growing up and the changing fabric of family life.

absolutely fantastic story about a group of children during wartime - perfect for kids and adults of all ages. The book has been very well illustrated by the author, and the story itself is a lovely glimpse into life as it would have been during this difficult time. I found the characters engaging, and the language used easy to follow. I was asked to read this as a review copy and have bought copies for my godchildren who love it also.
