This is a light novel with very serious and interesting overtones. A deep and lasting friendship is made between two young girls when one, an evacuee from London's blitz, goes to stay with a turbulent Catholic family in Ireland. The Catholic background presents most interesting moral and religious problems. Written with wit and warm compassion, it is a fine story, entertaining, worth while and just the thing for travel and vacation.
