Code-Cracking for Beginners
It’s 1941. Hitler’s ruthless Luftwaffe has already started its deadly bombing raids across London.
So, when cousins Sam and Lily are evacuated north to a sleepy seaside hamlet, they hope that they’ll find safety.
Instead, the two children encounter local hostility, a shifty character sending messages in a secretive code, and a treacherous plot.
Will Sam, Lily and their new friends be able to crack the code before hundreds are killed?
'Code-Cracking for Beginners' covers the key events of WW2, including fascinating insights into life as an evacuee, the Blitz, rationing and so much more.
It's tense, gripping, and full of memorable characters and events to inspire reading on the topic.
The story is wonderfully illustrated throughout, including images of packed suitcases to show what an evacuee could have brought with them to their new home.
