A moving story of a family living in the East End of London during WW2. Told from the perspective and memories of a brother & sister who watched their ordinary world change around them. From the outbreak of war and waving their father off to fight the Nazis, to their relentless nightly runs to the air raid shelters and wondering if their home would still be there in the morning. With wonderful illustrations, this book celebrates the spirit of the people from the many cities in those dark days, who kept calm and carried on.
