Description
Rita Smith's determination to keep smiling through the darkest of times is a testament to her strength and resilience. When Italy sides with Germany and her closest friends are interned as enemies of the state, Rita finds herself alone in her community. Despite this, she remains committed to doing her part for the war effort, volunteering as a fire warden and facing challenges head-on. As Rita navigates the difficulties of wartime, she must also come to terms with the loss of her mother at a young age and her father's absence on important work. Her home destroyed, Rita vows not to lose spirit and throws herself into helping others, longing for the day when she can be reunited with those she loves. This heart-warming novel is set against the backdrop of World War II and explores themes of community, courage, and the human spirit in the face of adversity.
