Description
Beyond That, the Sea by Laura Spence-Ash is a sweeping love story set against the backdrop of World War II. In 1940, two families living in England and America make an impossible choice: sending their young daughter to safety across the Atlantic Ocean. As German bombs fall over London, Millie and Reginald Thompson decide to send their eleven-year-old daughter Beatrix to live with another family for the duration of the war. Bea arrives in Boston to meet the Gregorys, a lively family who welcome her into their world. She becomes part of their lives, learning their ways and stories, and grows close to both boys, one older and one younger. As Bea navigates her new life, she finds herself torn between two worlds. When the war ends, Bea is called back to London, but she must confront the reality of leaving behind the life she has built in America.
