About this listen

February 1941. After months of bombing raids in London, 12-year-old Olive Bradshaw and her little brother, Cliff, are evacuated to the Devon coast. The only person with two spare beds is Mr Ephraim, the local lighthouse keeper.

Desperate to be helpful, Olive becomes his post girl, carrying secret messages (as she likes to think of the letters) to the villagers. But Olive has a secret of her own. Her older sister, Sukie, went missing in an air raid, and she’s desperate to discover what happened to her.

This book captures the imagination with it's details and sense of place of life in WWII. Following the story Olive, living under the backdrop of the war. Well worth a listen. Especially good for teachers to give pupils first hand accounts of the war.

My 10 year old daughter and I both loved this story, for the mystery and for the love in it. Hooray for children's books that don't shy away from looking sadness and loss in the face.

Beautiful!
