Rose Blanche is about a little girl exploring the woods She is searching and see's a little boy run out into the road from the soldiers.
The story was fiction and I loved Rose because she helped the prisoners.
The book is factual and it interested me because I never heard of a war before.
I would recommend my friends to read it so they can see how interesting it is.
Ideal for anyone interested in WW2. The illustrations are full of detail and nuances and the story is moving and thought-provoking.
I read this book to my grandchildren (Y6 and Y4), they both loved it. The Y6 child is really enjoying anything to do with WW2 at the minute. This book created lots of discussion- both factual and emotional.
a bit sad,
