When the Siren Wailed by Noel Streatfeild
When World War II started, everybody was terrified that the enemy would bomb London to ruins, and thousands of children were sent to homes in the country. The three Clark children were sent to Dorset. Laura, Andy and Tim with their names and address pinned to them, joined Operation Pied Piper.
