| Synopsis: |
Billy Doyle was almost thirteen when World War Two commenced. He was an innocent lad, with a vivid imagination, who came to terms with growing up during the first two years of war torn Britain. His zest for life produced some challenging situations when the disciplines of home life were put to the test. Self-doubt and the questioning of adult values, formed their own set of problems. The book contains many evocative descriptions of life during the Second World War. Billy's experiences and adventures in the contrasting environments of country and town are both interesting and amusing as well as giving a realistic view of Britain in the war. Historically accurate, overflowing with facts and bulging with nostalgia, this would make an ideal book for junior schools working on Second World War topics as well as providing a fascinating, if not endearing, read for adults. |
