Book of the Month August
What a fantastic book. A great insight into WW2 but from an alternate perspective. I really liked the perspective of the different animals. Mabel the cat really behaved how you would expect, sassy and disinterested but yearning to be involved, just not wanting to show it! And Bomber the pigeon’s yearning to play an important role as a soldier, without realising that by helping Beau and Mabel find the children he was helping in so many more ways!
I would definitely recommend this book to others to read. A perfect book for children interested in animals, the war, themes of friendship and resilience, adventure. A great book to provoke emotion in those who read it, with a bit of humour littered throughout!!
