One for Goodnight Mister Tom fans! Hitler’s bombs are falling on London. It’s no place for kids, even though Carrie & Nick are toughing it out. But when they’re sent to rural Wales on a train of evacuees, they find life there just as hard. (If a bit less deadly.) They’re stuck with bullying old Mr Evans: mean to them & his timid sister. At least their friend Albert gets a warm welcome in the strange old house at Druid’s Bottom. But hanging over them all is an ancient curse. What will happen when it strikes? A much-loved wartime classic by Nina Bawden Full of insights into the lives of wartime evacuees Explores family, loyalty, choice & consequence Brilliantly evokes the Second World War era Six copies of this classic children’s book to accompany Read & Respond: Carrie’s War. read-&-respond-2018 readandrespond pm 19-offer
