This is a lovely, charming story of a young girl and the adjustments she had to make during a particular time during WWII. Lily, her mother and grandfather have to tend to their farm without the help of her father, who joined the British Army. It is difficult having a number of unfamiliar London children as part of their community. Then there is the influx of American soldiers in their small town. Lily must navigate these unsure and scary times, but she knows that she always has her faithful cat Tips with her. The characters are all down to earth individuals, likable and ones you come to care about. It is not overly sentimental but will bring tears to your eyes. I thoroughly enjoyed Lily's tale and would definitely recommend to anyone needing a good historical fiction novel for a school assignment.

This is a story about a cat in the Second World War and the evacuation of an area of England during that time. While it is written for children, it is a lovely book and worth a read for grown ups too.
