Description
Rusty returns to England after five happy years in America, but it doesn't feel like home. Her mother is a stranger, her little brother doesn't know her, and the food tastes bad. The rules and rationing are strict, and her new boarding school is rigid. Lonely and homesick, Rusty struggles to adjust. She finds comfort in her friendship with Lance, another returned evacuee, and her spirit begins to lead her towards a dramatic and devastating rebellion. As Rusty navigates her new life, she must confront the challenges of being a stranger in a familiar place. Michelle Magorian's powerful and unforgettable story explores the complexities of childhood and the resilience of the human spirit.
