Good Night, Mr. Tom by Michelle Magorian

5.0

This is me reading Good Night Mr Tom: "Well, this is all really nice and sweet, maybe even too sweet WHOA WHAT WAS THAT?!". I don't remember which books exactly I read in the tender age of 9-10 years, but they definitely did not include detailed descriptions of abused children and dead babies.

Nevertheless, I absolutely loved this book. Its perfect English village with perfect English people and perfect main character might seem a tad too much, but it's a children's book after all, so I'm fine with it. Even if almost everyone is too good to be true, I cared about them nonetheless, which is all that matters.
