Description

Carrie's War is a poignant and realistic novel about a young girl's experience during wartime. When Carrie and her little brother Nick are evacuated from their London home to the Welsh hills, they struggle to adjust to their new surroundings. They find little comfort with the family they are billeted with, but their lives are transformed when they meet Albert, another evacuee who introduces them to Hepzibah Green, a kind and welcoming woman. Hepzibah's warm kitchen and stories become a refuge for the children, but their loyalties are soon tested. As they navigate their new relationships, they must confront the harsh realities of war and the difficult choices they face. This heartwarming and thought-provoking novel is a powerful exploration of childhood, loyalty, and the human experience. With its beautiful prose and timeless themes, Carrie's War is a worthwhile read for anyone who loves stories about the human condition.
