Rupert Matthews

Reading: Read together or independently, then use a diary or game if it interests your child. Pause to distinguish the characters’ family memories from the wider historical information.
Themes: Wartime experiences: The children learn about wartime life through their grandparents' memories and those of their grandparents' friends. The book’s stance on this remains unclear.
Worth knowing: The extent or detail of combat scenes is unclear.
