This is the much-loved classic autobiographical picture book about World War II. As a child, one of Michael Foreman's earliest memories was of an incendiary bomb which landed in his room and missed him by inches. Here, he recreates, with touches of humour and factual information, his childhood lived during WWII with his family in Suffolk. A rare book that blends factual information with an exciting and wonderful story. 9 yrs+
