This is a WONDERFUL book about a girl named Ada (who has a clubfoot) and her ordinary brother, Jamie. Their mother does not treat them well and often strikes them. One day they sneak off with children whose parents want them to be safe from the bombs that are supposed to go off. Ada and Jamie get shipped to a old cranky woman who does not want them but they soon become close. This woman treats them good, and soon comes to love them, this war really does save their lives.
