But they don't feel lucky - they've lost their parents and Aunt Dorothy is a poor substitute for mam and dad. She cannot cope with all three children and Billy is sent to an orphanage. When she tells them that Billy has died, Jimmy and Susan decide to run away. They meet Freddie, and Susan feels the first stirrings of love, but Freddie is off to war and Susan realises that any home is better than none. She and Jimmy must return to their aunt's house...

Reviews

[Cinnamon · Rating 2 out of 5]

Lots of drama and lots of prepositional phrases used as sentences.

[Stacey Campbell · Rating 5 out of 5]

In the first 50 pages I thought it had all happened and was going to be over and the rest of the book was going to just be babble but I was very wrong.
More problems, more things happened. Nice bit of romance for a few characters.
Fantastic book
