Resumen del Editor

For fans of The War That Saved My Life and other World War II fiction, A Place to Hang the Moon is the tale of three orphaned siblings who are evacuated from London to live in the countryside with the secret hope of finding a permanent family.

It is 1940 and William, 12, Edmund, 11, and Anna, nine, aren't terribly upset by the death of the not-so-grandmotherly grandmother who has taken care of them since their parents died. But the children do need a guardian, and in the dark days of World War II London, those are in short supply, especially if they hope to stay together. Could the mass wartime evacuation of children from London to the countryside be the answer?

It's a preposterous plan, but off they go - keeping their predicament a secret, and hoping to be placed in a temporary home that ends up lasting forever. Moving from one billet to another, the children suffer the cruel trickery of foster brothers, the cold realities of outdoor toilets, and the hollowness of empty stomachs. They find comfort in the village lending library, whose kind librarian, Nora Müller, seems an excellent choice of billet, except that her German husband's whereabouts are currently unknown, and some of the villagers consider her unsuitable.

Sweet story

A place to hang the moon is a sweet story about orphan siblings finding a home during WWII. Ch 13 has a scene that is hard for some folks not familiar with farm life, but it's nothing too bad or gory. Recommended for ages 9 and up, depending on the child, maybe 11 and up for sensitive children.

Excellent Historical Novel

Both the author and the narrator do an excellent job with this book! The plot will certainly want to make want to cry and I definitely did not want this book to end but I was really happy with the ending. As my daughter said "this book is about family and how the 3 orphaned siblings always wanted to stay together no matter what".
