Inspired by real life events, this "unputdownable" WWII story chronicles the horrors of the Dunkirk evacuations through the eyes of Charlie, a runaway naval cadet. Ideal for ages 10+ and anyone with an interest in Dunkirk and WWII. A perfect Key Stage 2 WWII novel.

' This is an unputdownable adventure story woven around the evacuation at Dunkirk and then the D-Day landings. Packed with historical facts but written as fiction this is a great aid to pupils studying WW2 but also a thrilling read and a crucial reminder to children today of what their ancestors did in preventing what would have resulted in an entirely different country had the UK been invaded by the Nazis.'
