A Place to Hang the Moon by Kate Albus

5.0

I wish I could go back and read A Place to Hang the Moon again for the first time. I have always enjoyed middle grade literature and WWII history. This novel is the perfect intersection of those two things. William, Edmund, and Anna are three lovable orphaned siblings thrust into the unenviable situation of being evacuated to the English countryside after the death of their grandmother. There they are confronted with the beauty and ugliness of life—often all at once. Everything about this book made me want to curl up in a cozy corner, preferably with a hot mug of English Breakfast tea, and keep reading. Highly recommended!
