This semi-autobiography is about the life and times of the author and the other children of the coal yard of this book that covers World War 2 from 1939/45. The war years were a devastating time for the British nation and in particular for the children of those times who suffered great hardships in multiple ways. Many of the words seen in this book stem from that period in time and grannies and grandads will be needed to explain to the younger generation the meaning of words such as "doodlebug" and "Spanish liquorice wood". My generation will also be taken down memory lane when reading the tales told within the covers of this book. Plus the book is illustrated with some brilliant drawings by a talented artist.
