The moment I read the first sentence, I couldn’t put The War That Saved My Life  down until I finished reading the last sentence. I like this book because it was filled with action and drama.  If I wrote this astounding book, I wouldn’t change a word. If I were the main character, ten-year-old Ada, I would have also run away from her mam (mom), which does happen in the book. I would do this because her mam keeps her in her room with a bucket. Her mam does this because Ada has a hideous clubfoot; well, at least that’s what her mam says. Once she runs away, Ada and her brother become evacuees and it gets much more exciting by the second! Now, that they ran away during the war they have become evacuees. One JUICY word to describe The War That Saved My Life is flabbergasting and an addicting book because I really couldn’t stop reading! I can’t wait for the sequel, The War I Finally Won. Will her mam come and get her back or will she stay with the nicest caretaker, Miss Smith? Read The War That Saved My Life  to find out...
