I found BILLY one of those rare books you read which you cant stop reading but you dont want to finish I hope Bill Green writes a sequel.

BILLY What a great read. The book made me realise how hard and cruel life was during and after the war.
My only disappointment was that the book had to come to an end. I found myself rationing my reading time just to stretch out the remaining pages.

BILLY This book gives a very descriptive account of how life was for evacuees during World War 2.
What is also apparent is that life for the author and his brother were not just hard when evacuated, but did not change when they returned to the care of their father and stepmother.
An extremely good read which I would recommend
