Goodnight Mr Tom [12/01/10]


So this is the second Book Of The Week of the decade. It wqas agreat today. We had a great selection of books today and I hope today's Book Of The Week is the shape of things to come in the future. A big well done to Grace who won with the first book she presented. she is added to the history books (or in this case blog) as she is added to this site.
The gruff and surly Mr Thomas Oakley is less than pleased when he is landed with a scrawny little city boy as a guest, but because it is compulsory that each villager takes in an evacuee he reluctantly agrees. It soon becomes obvious to Mister Tom that young Willie Beech is hiding something, and as the pair begin to form an unlikely bond and Willie grows in stature and in confidence he begins to forget the past. But when he has to return to war-torn London to face his mother again he retreats into his shy and awkward ways once more.

Goodnight Mister Tom is one of the most touching and powerful stories ever written. As the relationship between Willie and Tom begins.
