When the Second World War broke out in September 1939, it
came as no surprise to the children of Germany: the Nazis
had been preparing them for a war ever since they had come
to power in 1933. To British children it was an altogether
different matter. Children all over Britain were deeply
affected by the war: many were separated from their parents
by evacuation or bereavement; all had to `make do and mend'
with clothes and toys; and some even died while contributing
to the war effort at home,. In this moving and often amusing
account, Mike Brown, describes what life was like on the
Home Front during the war from a child's point of view.
