Description

Noor-un-Nissa Inayat Khan is the story of a remarkable young woman who refused to stand by while her home was invaded and her people were terrorised. In 1940, she made a courageous decision to travel to England to join the war efforts, despite her mother's wishes. Her bravery and talents soon caught the attention of Winston Churchill, who chose her for a secret mission to sneak back into France as an undercover agent. As Noor returned home, she became a secret agent, tasked with reporting back to London and helping the Allies win the war. But keeping her true identity hidden would be a daunting challenge. This gripping story tells the untold tale of a young woman who risked everything for her country, making it perfect background reading for Key Stage 2 & 3 students. With its exciting stories and reliable historical detail, this book offers an authentic experience of history's untold stories, bringing Noor's remarkable journey to life.
