While I've long admired Deary's Horrible Histories series this was my first venture into his fiction writing. I definitely wasn't disappointed – there's the accuracy I'd have expected combined with great excitement and it's written in a really easy to read style that older primary school children will be able to enjoy by themselves, but the action is so good that even older teens and adults will also no doubt really like it, especially if they're already interested in the Second World War. High recommendation to all!
I'd like to thank the publishers for sending a copy to The Bookbag. We also have a review of [[Ghost for Sale by Terry Deary]].
Further reading suggestion: The Morris Gleitzman trilogy [[Once by Morris Gleitzman|Once]], [[Then by Morris Gleitzman|Then]] and [[Now by Morris Gleitzman|Now]] are heartbreaking stories of the Holocaust for children. Olderreaders who enjoy graphic novels will be stunned by Art Spiegelman'sfantastic [[Maus by Art Spiegelman|Maus]].
