Friday Featured Book: Evacuees of the Second World War by Mike Brown
This book isn’t about the front lines of battle during WWII, it is all about those who were behind the soldiers, namely the British children and families they were defending. London was under heavy attack by the Germans and thousands of children had to be evacuated from the city. The countryside and even international countries took these evacuee children in to save their lives. This is their story, the details of how young children were forced to cope with a world war and many without their parents to comfort them.
