The Little Ships: The Heroic Rescue at Dunkirk in World War II Paperback - 2003

by Louise Borden; Michael Foreman (Illustrator)

The true story of the rescue of more than 500,000 British and French soldiers trapped in France in 1940 is told in this age-appropriate book that details the mission of the "little ships" in a legendary armada. Many yearned to be a part of this mission--including a little girl who wanted more than anything to be a part of a worthy cause. Full-color illustrations.

First line

In 1940, I lived with my father in the town of Deal, on the Kent coast of England, safe from the thunder of the Germans' guns in France.
