Friend or Foe?

Year 5 are currently reading the book 'Friend or Foe' by Micheal Murpogo for English. The story is about two boys, David and Tucky, who are evacuated from London during World War II and settle into life on a farm in Devon.

Pupils have been fascinated by the title and the theme of the book.  Here are some of their thoughts about the story so far:

 "I recommend this book because it taught me that it doesn't matter where you are from, you should always help people" Minahil

"I like the book. It is very interesting to read. I enjoyed the part where they met the Germans. Surprisingly, one of the German airmen gave his gun along with his injured friend to keep as a prisoner. I was filled with so many thoughts! What would happen? Would they report him to the army? The book is amazing! Sumaya A
