Build your child's reading confidence at home with books at the right level
World War 2 is over and things in Britain are changing. For Philip and his family this means moving out, from the grey, cramped city to wide open spaces. But Gran doesn't want to leave her home for so many years. What will the family do?

Text type: A story set in the past
This book is paired with Hard Times, a non-fiction non-chronological report about growing up in the Victorial age.
