Letters from the Lighthouse by Emma Carroll
Emma Carroll is fast developing a reputation as a writer of novels in historical settings. This mystery is set during WWII.
After an air raid in which their sister disappears, Olive Bradshaw and her little brother Cliff are evacuated from London to a quiet seaside town on the Devon coast. ItÆs all very different to noisy metropolitan life in London but with secret messages, lights at sea and a possible spy, life is anything but quiet!
This book is extremely gripping. It is about two evacuees Cliff and Olive and their mystery missing sister Sukie. I would recommend this book. 5 stars.
I loved the way the author mixed history with fiction and the storyline was really good.
5 stars
It is amazing book with a lot of plot lines about WW2 and has an amazing story behind it.
A great historical book based on the times of the war with an interesting plot. I would love for there to be a sequel. Emma Carroll in an amazing author. I would recommend her to everybody!
5 STARS
I think in this book being left on your own at a train station as an evacuee, would be scary and threatening.
5 STARS
I donÆt really agree. It was a very common sight to see children sat on there own when being evacuated. This was because families generally picked the children that looked the strongest or prettiest leaving others to last. But I do agree on the fives stars part!!!
I totally agree too!!!
