Critics Review
Wonderful illustrations. * Wells Journal *
The storytelling is superb … it makes a good read for those who are short of time but want a quality read. I read it on the daily commute * The Citizen *
Moving tale of secrets and survival bound together by the power of music. * The Bookseller Children’s Buyer’s Guide *
Like so many of his books, the author packs a huge amount of emotion into a relatively short story; tender and touching yet woven through with the reality and horror of those times. Michael Foreman’s pencil drawings subtly convey the emotions and hit home for the reader. A compelling and haunting tale. * Parents in Touch *
