More About A long way from home : the diary of Lillian Glenmore, Warkworth, 1943
Normally I love my story books but this time they kind of ruined it by making it too soppy! it had great potential but turned into a love story ! I love lorraine ormans books, I meet her at a literacy festival once and she signed my copy of this book. A long way from home is about the American marines coming to New Zealand which is actually a true event in history. It's quite fascinating really and not boring like normal history books. My great aunties had a similar experience... This book was amazing. I love reading the my story books because they are a great way to read about true events in history. They are also writtin from the pov as school children so i found it very easy to read. I would recomend this book to almost anyone.
