Bookpage ~ Angela Leeper What makes Rosemary Zibart's True Brit most engaging is the attention to detail, from descriptions of mud homes and pinon trees to "A-okay" American slang. Beatrice's journal entries add more insight into her evolution from a privileged girl to the beginnings of a modern woman. The first in a series, this fresh take on the era will continue with more stories about displaced children during World War II. Tumbleweeds Magazine True Brit - Beatrice: 1940" achieves what a historical novel should achieve. It informs and entertains and the two elements combine to make the learning lasting. Midwest Book Review There is nothing more terrifying than having one's child in a warzone. True Brit: Beatrice, 1940 is a historical novel drawing from history of many British people who sent their children away to Santa Fe and other places in the United States for safety, to keep them from the vicious war that would be fought in the skies over London. Terrifying for the children and parents being faced with a whole new world and concern over the home the left behind, True Brit is a fine read for younger readers that is educational as it is entertaining. |
