A little girl named Lily spends the summer in Rockaway, New York in 1944 during World War 2. Lily’s summer was supposed to be a fun, happy summer, but it changes fast. Her best friend Margaret’s family is moving to Detroit, Lily’s father gets shipped to Europe to help with reconstruction, is stuck with her grandmother, and has no friends until her neighbors in Rockaway introduce her to a boy named Albert. Albert is a hungarian refugee. Both Albert and Lily share the guilt and pain from being apart from their family, and become very god friends. They also share lies that could risk Albert’s life!
I recommend this book to people who like historical fiction, and world war 2. This book was sad and very good!! I think everyone who reads this blog should read this book! Read the book to see what happens!!
this sounds like a really great book. I wonder what lies that would risk alberts life? Great blog!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It looks good. It sounds suspenceful. Good job!
