Private Peaceful by Michael Morpurgo
As Mother smooths my hair and Big Joe offers her yet another foxglove, all I can thing is that I have caused this.

I have killed my own father. p. 17

    Hi Beth,

    Michael Morpurgo has a huge following here in the UK, amongst both adults and children.

    I haven't read any of his stuff myself, but I can't think why, as I follow the charity work which he does for disadvantaged children quite avidly.

    This book sounds so intriguing and after I sneaked a peek at the full synopsis, very emotional I should think.

    Definitely one for my reading list, so thanks for sharing.

    Yvonne
