It is 1940 and William, twelve, Edmund, eleven, and Anna, nine, aren't terribly upset by the death of the not-so-grandmotherly grandmother who has taken care of them since their parents died. But the children do need a guardian, and in the dark days of World War II London, those are in short supply, especially if they hope to stay together. Could the mass wartime evacuation of children from London to the countryside be the answer? It's a preposterous plan, but off they go-keeping their predicament a secret, and hoping to be placed in a temporary home that ends up lasting forever. Moving from one billet to another, the children suffer the cruel trickery of foster brothers, the cold realities of outdoor toilets, and the hollowness of empty stomachs. They find comfort in the village lending library, whose kind librarian, Nora Müller, seems an excellent choice of billet, except that her German husband's whereabouts are currently unknown, and some of the villagers consider her unsuitable. 538 $a Requires the Libby app or a modern web browser. 650 17 $a Juvenile Fiction. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Historical Fiction. $2 OverDrive 650 7 $a Juvenile Literature. $2 OverDrive 655 7 $a Electronic books. $2 local 700 1 $a Lee, Polly. 856 40 $u http://link.overdrive.com/?websiteID=251&titleID=6228603 $z Click to download here. 856 4 $3 Excerpt $u https://samples.overdrive.com/?crid=bd7c09c9-c2b0-4310-a71c-e0539816d9df&.epub-sample.overdrive.com $z Sample 856 4 $3 Image $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-100/1219-1/%7BBD7C09C9-C2B0-4310-A71C-E0539816D9DF%7DImg100.jpg $z Large cover image 856 4 $3 Thumbnail $u https://img1.od-cdn.com/ImageType-200/1219-1/%7BBD7C09C9-C2B0-4310-A71C-E0539816D9DF%7DImg200.jpg $z Thumbnail cover image 856 40 $3 Click for more information $u https://api.overdrive.com/v1/collections/v1L1B0wAAAA2Z/products/bd7c09c9-c2b0-4310-a71c-e0539816d9df $x 1370 941 $a 1 952 $l CBPF522 $d 20230606011014.0 956 $a http://locator.silo.lib.ia.us/search.cgi?index_0=id&term_0=7C68848C042F11EE896B6DEA35ECA4DBInitiate Another SILO Locator Search
