‘The thing about courage is that you have it in you, or you don’t…it can be found in most - when need arises…take the chance to find the courage in you.’ Ronnie and Micky’s story is an absolute triumph, as I knew it would be. Jenny Pearson’s characterisation is remarkable ❤️

What a brilliant book. Such a different story set in WW2. I can't wait to talk about it with a child in my class who finished it last week. I'd told him that I thought Johnny was a wrong 'un but not realised just how bad! Jenny Pearson #readingforpleasure


One of our parents at school has loaned me this by Jenny Pearson and I can't put it down. Great storytelling and I love the characters. Going to order some for school for our Year 6 to support WW2 topic learning📚
