Liverpool, England during World War II, is the setting for this historical fiction novel for middle grades. For a younger audience than The War that Saved My Life, Whistling in the Dark takes place during the Liverpool Blitz in the early 1940s, and primarily deals with the local population trying to have to go about their lives amidst the nightly bombs. There is a minor black market mystery element to the story as well. Similar to Hughes' Hero on a Bicycle but a bit easier. aucune critique | ajouter une critique

Liverpool, 1940: Thirteen-year-old Joan's home is under constant threat from the Nazis' terrifying nightly air raids. Everyone is on edge, faced with strict food rationing, curfews, and blackouts. It's not an easy time to be a teenager. Joan's one solace is going to the movies with her best friend, the unflappable Doreen, but when the bombings intensify, even that becomes too dangerous. There's also the matter of a strange man who Joan sees lurking near their home. Who is he, and why does he think Joan can help him? Even more unsettling, as the Blitz worsens, Joan and her friends make a discovery down by the old mill that will tear the whole community apart. In the hardship of war, everything seems to be rationed except true friendship. Aucune description trouvée dans une bibliothèque |
