Synopsis
Seventh-grader Martin Conway believes that his life is monotonous and dull until the night the antique radio he uses as a night-light transports him to the bombing of London in 1940., World War II London, family relationships, and class issues combine in this invigorating and intriguing middle-grade novel. Seventh-grader Martin Conway finds life difficult as a scholarship student at his private school, All Souls, and when he finds himself transported to wartime London, he's both fascinated and overwhelmed. A call for help from a boy named Jimmy Harker through an old radio given to him by his grandmother takes Martin on an odyssey that will enable him to find out the truth about his school's founder, and force him to deal with his relationship with his own father. Edward Bloor is also the author of TANGERINE.
