Reviews
It is a good book but a bit upsetting
I thought this book was good.
The book is good for people who like history and learning about world wars.
Loved this book. I would recommend it anyone who is interested or learning about WW2.
I really enjoyed this fiction book, it was based around the war giving an insight to what happened during these times and allowed you to understand how scary and brave the characters were. A great book for educating children in this area.
I don’t mostly like work war
There is war going on and two boys need to evacuate but their parents do not. They have now been evacuated and now need to be in a new family.The two boys (Tucky and David) now are safe but then it is a couple of days went by and the war is approaching them.
This book wasn't as good as I expected it to be.
I don't recommend it
This book taught me that it doesn’t matter where you are from, you should always help people. David and Tucky are English evacuees who help two German soldiers. It helped me think what would have happened if the Allies hadn’t won the war and we visited the Imperial War Museum. I wanted to keep on reading because the plot really gripped me.
I thought that friend or foe was a interesting,adventurous and amazing because when i read it it made me feel interested and and adventurous.
My favorite character was David a boy in the story.
What interested me was that when David and Tucky saw the German ship and when they found the Germans when they went down to the moor and another part was when they took the wounded German to MR Reynolds because he wanted to be taken to prison.
I would recomend it to my friend because it is a good book.
Good
I had a really nice experience reading this book. It was actually a bit emotional. I liked
Tucky the best.
Yes definitely Great book great story line with a moral
I loved this book it was sad but interesting and i didnt want it to end . read it now
The main character which is david seems to be very nice.
He is very sad in leaving his mum to go to Devon.But his new family is very nice and help him .At the end it was very nice of david and tucky to help a nazi soldier even though they were the opposite team.
Nice quick story that will be good to support a WW2 topic. Helps to humanise the Germans and also shows a relatable side to the war. Well written and easy to follow.
This book is about David and Tucky they see a German bomber plan and they help the Germans but the German gives up when trying to escape from the countryside and the Yeo boys are from London but had to be evacuated because of the war one German wanted to give him self up one wanted to escape but got caught by a milkman .
Thoughtful book with insight into family relationships and the relationships children have with their friends. Challenging ideas if not a particularly challenging read. Aged well.
REALLY GOOD BOOK. I recommend this book to 10-11 year olds.
I really enjoyed this book as it was fun. My favourite character was the injured German solider
Enjoyed reading a story set in our local area. Tells of two evacuees from Devon who find a stranded German pilot and the dilemma they face in reporting him to the authorities. Great text for exploring the issues around thoughts we might have over different nationalities to ourselves and how they can be changed. Also great link for any class studying world war two.
Gentleness with not so gentle dilemas and feelings. Good handling of the conflicting feelings of the main characters. Will be reading this to my Year 4 class in November so we can think of all the people who will be remembering those who died in the war.
Definitley recommend this book.
It is factual and it was fun to read.
David and Tucky, 2 boys who were London evacuees. They were sent to the countryside to live with a man and his wife. The man was a look out in the village for enemy bombers and was able to warn everyone else. His wife looked after the boys but one day David and Tucky and their dog went into the woods where they thought they saw a German plane crash but nobody believed so they were going to prove it. They did find the 2 German pilots but didn't hand them in. One was hurt and the other was looking after him. In the end only one was able to discuss the injured pilot had to be taken captive and David and Tucky were able to reunite with their mother.
I would recommend this book to people who love WWII.
I liked learning about what happened to evacuees in the war.
Really enjoyed it
this is kind of true. It describes what life was like during the war. I like the boys. It makes me think of my friends. I feel sad when no one comes to take them in.
it is good because it makes you feel sorry for David
I lied David best because he was nice and he did things for other people, especially Tucky.
I thought it was a good book because it made you think about how you can help other people.
I liked Mr Reynolds the best because he was very kind to Tucky and Davey.
It was interesting because it was about the War
