Why read it?
1 author picked The War I Finally Won as one of their favorite books. Why do they recommend it?
The title offers an important hint that the focus isn’t solely on exterior events. In this sequel to The War That Saved My Life, World War II still rages across the English countryside, though Ada’s actually emotionally safer than she’d ever been when living with her mother. But memories of that time still give her terrible nightmares, and when a crisis makes her feel like they’re coming true, she discovers that there’s a big difference between fear and what you do with it.

From Susan's list on middle grade that makes history leap off the page.
