Guests Of War Trilogy

by Kit Pearson

Penguin Group Canada | January 1, 1998 | Mass Market Paperbound

Based on historical events, this moving fictional account of the adventures of two English children in a foreign land has become a favorite among Canadian children-this award-winning trilogy is now available in this omnibus edition.

This unforgettable trio of novels by award-winning author Kit Pearson is composed of The Sky is Falling, Looking at the Moon and The Lights Go On Again. The character at the heart of these stories is Norah Stoakes, a young English girl who is sent by her parents to Canada, along with her younger brother, during the Second World War. After five years pass, Norah is comfortable with her new life and country, but when the war ends her brother, Gavin, is reluctant to return to England and to parents he can barely remember.

A foreign land

Mandy

11 years ago

This is an amazing book that captures the attention of young readers (which is hard to do). Norah is only 10 years old and is send to a far unknown land to her, with her younger brother Gavin. They learn about a new country and their life styles. Norah gets very homesick and must deal with her new home and the Oglives. Aunt Mary and Aunt Florance show her a new perspective of life. Personally I was very amazed how Kit Pearson could capture the reader's attention and keep it. If you still aren't thinking about buying this book think again. Its a wonderful book!!!
