Review # 1 was written on 2014-05-03 00:00:00 Efstratios Perentes gr 4-7 99 pgs 1938-1945, England. Told as a flashback, the story follows the friendship between Sally Simpkin and Rebecca Muller. To Sally, the war seems far off until she meets Rebecca who is a Jewish refugee who escaped from Germany with the help of the Trevelyan family that took her in. Over the course of the Simpkin family and Trevelyan family and the girls grow closer and offer each other help when they need it. Offers a look at how WWII affected the lives of people living in England and the lives of the refugees living there. For a more in depth look, I would recommend the trilogy by Irene Watts, which starts with "Good-Bye, Marianne".
