BOOK REVIEW
Title: Carrie’s War
Author: Nina Bawden
‘Carrie’s
War’ is an adventurous book about a 14 year old girl, named Carrie and her 10
year old brother, Nick. Carrie and Nick were sent away from their homes because
of a war in their hometown. They were sent to live with the angry and strict
Mr. Evans and his delicate sister Mrs. Evans.
Nick was afraid of many things like mosquitos,
spiders, dark nights and thunder but he wasn’t afraid of Mr. Evans, who had
false teeth which clicked when he talked. Their friend, Albert Sandwich was
mush luckier as he lived down the valley in Druid’s Bottom with old Hephzibah
Green and the strange Mr. Johnny. Carrie and Nick were happy to visit Albert
and the other folk until Carrie did something very bad; the worst thing she had
done in her whole life.
This book is
very interesting and full of suspense. I did not want to put it down until
reading the end. This novel would appeal to children and teenagers especially
girls. I recommend this awesome novel to all those, who seek for books with
adventure and suspense.
