I bought this today for my DS who has reached the stage where he will sit and listen to a longer story over a few nights. It is about a little boy being evacuated during the war and his daddy is away in the army.
It is a lovely story and ends happily but having read a dozen pages to DS tonight (he was pretty engrossed) I am now getting worried that it is too old for him and he will be scared by the whole idea of bombs and being sent away from us! He has a "See Inside London" book that covers the bombings during the war and people sheltering in tube stations etc, he seemed interested and accepting of that, he also went to sleep without any problems tonight - do you think I am being paranoid or should the book be put away for a while (like 2yrs)?
