"The Factory Girls of Lark Lane" by Pam Howes

Liverpool, England. It was WWII and the men were called to war. When they left, the country needed bomber planes built and it was the women who stood up and made it happen.

The wonders of how people came together in a very difficult time. They helped each other out and shared what they could.

Life on Lark Lane was one of perseverance, loyalty, dedication, kindness and pulling together. It was a time of doing all you could to survive and keep your home as well as you could.

The Factory Girls of Lark Lane is a book where you find yourself screaming when the fighter planes go over and where you find yourself smiling and laughing when friends and family find ways of enjoying themselves. It's a book where, when the men come home, you smile and cry. The war is over. The men are back and everyone is ecstatic.

What a beautifully written book. Pick up a copy. You'll enjoy it
