In the Imperial War Museum is a wooden Dachshund, carved by
a German prisoner of war for the children of the British
family with which he stayed after the fighting ended.
This is the story of how it got there...
When the
Bismarck
sinks, one of the only German survivors is taken on board a British ship as a prisoner of war. Sent to live with a host family, Walter must adapt to a new way of life, in the heart of an enemy country.
Gradually, though, he finds a friend in ten-year-old Grace. So when the time finally comes to go back to Germany, it's an emotional parting, with Walter leaving Grace with only a carved wooden dog to remember him by. The question is, will Walter and Grace ever meet again?
In 1966 — with the World Cup coming to Britain — that opportunity may just have come along.

A river pebble on a charm bracelet has an astonishing true story to tell
of one family's bravery and survival in harsh colonial Australia...
When artistic Millie visits a long-lost aunt, she learns the true story of her family's tragic past. Could the mysterious ghost girl Millie has painted be her own ancestor? In 1839, Charlotte Atkinson lives at Oldbury—a gracious estate in the Australian bush—with her Mamma and her sisters and brother. But after the death of Charlotte's father, things start to go terribly wrong. There are murderous convicts and marauding bushrangers. Worst of all, Charlotte's new stepfather is cruel and unpredictable.
Frightened for their lives, the family flees on horseback to a stockman's hut in the wilderness. Charlotte's mother and the children must fight to save their property, their independence and their very right to be a family. Will they ever return together to their beautiful home? Based on the incredible true-life battles of Belinda Murrell's own ancestors, one of Australia's early artistic and literary families—the Atkinsons of Oldbur.

The day the First World War broke out Alfie Summerfield's father promised he wouldn't go away to fight — but he broke that promise the following day. Four years later, Alfie doesn't know where his father might be, other than that he's away on a special, secret mission.
Then, while shining shoes at King's Cross Station, Alfie unexpectedly sees his father's name — on a sheaf of papers belonging to a military doctor. Bewildered and confused, Alfie realises his father is in a hospital close by — a hospital treating soldiers with an unusual condition. Alfie is determined to rescue his father from this strange, unnerving place...
From the bestselling author of
The Boy in the Striped Pyjamas
, a warm and moving story of a boy's search for his missing father during the First World War.

When Ben and Gracie go to meet their mum after work at the art gallery, they're hoping the golden ticket they still have from their previous visit will again transport them into a painting. This time, they find themselves whisked back in time to the world of another colonial artist, Tom Roberts.
When the young daughter of a settler family invites the pair back to her parents' farm, not only do they meet Tom Roberts himself and see him at work, but they also witness a robbery when bushrangers ambush a stagecoach. Will Ben and Gracie and their new friend be able to escape the cross-fire when troopers start shooting?
The paintings of iconic Australian artists are brought to life in this exciting picture book series of adventures about a young boy and girl. In this second book, Ben and Gracie Green lose themselves in the paintings of Tom Roberts and experience early settlement life in Australia.
