Charlie never meant to travel back in time - but now he's stuck in wartime Devon, living with a strict farming family, waking before dawn, and trying not to get pecked by broody hens. With air-raids, rationing, and hard farm chores to face, Charlie must rely on new friendships and a mysterious family diary to understand what life was really like for children during the Second World War. Charlie, the Evacuee is a timeslip adventure story and ideal for KS2 topics including World War Two, evacuation, and life on the Home Front. Exploring resilience, belonging, family history, and the quiet heroism of ordinary people, this engaging historical fiction is both vivid and accessible for all ages. Ideal for classrooms, book groups, and anyone looking for stories set in wartime Britain.
