Summary: 5 Stars
'Goodnight Mr Tom' was a real story - not a soppy romance, or a 'teenagers are so cool' paperback. The story of Will, an abused little boy evacuated from London during World War 2, really touched me. The gradual development of WIll from a scared little boy to a proud and happy child was a real gem. Characters such as Zach and Mr Tom, Carrie and George all helped to story to become a truly memorable one. This story should be on all school curriculum, and should be read by all.Book Review: The best book ever

I read this book a few years ago and it touched me so deeply that I ordered several copies for my friends to read. This book takes place during WW2 in England, and it has everything in it. It's filled with tears and laughter. I wanted to meet these people and be friends with them. I was so excited to see this author has a new book coming out. After reading Goodnight Mr. Tom, I bought all her books. She has a gift for telling a story. Have I mentioned how much I love this book?Book Review: After years, continues to be my favorite book.
Summary: 5 Stars
Good Night, Mr. Tom is without question one of my favorite books. As a college student, I've read a lot of books. The story in this book is more powerful than most of the intricate symbolism in most classic works of literature.Even without having read it for years (but having read it half a dozen times), the story of Willie and Mr. Tom is still something I think of often. I can't speak highly enough of the book. Buy it, get it from the library, borrow it, READ IT!
