Description
In the darkest days of the Blitz, family is more important than ever.
With her family struggling amidst the nightly bombing raids in London's East End, Ida Brogan is doing her very best to keep their spirits up. The Blitz has hit the Brogans hard, and rationing is more challenging than ever, but they are doing all they can to help the war effort.
When Ida's oldest friend Ellen returns to town, sick and in dire need of help, it is to Ida that she turns. But Ellen carries a secret, one that threatens not only Ida's marriage, but the entire foundation of the Brogan family. Can Ida let go of the past and see a way to forgive her friend? And can she overcome her sadness to find a place in her heart for a little boy, one who will need a mother more than ever in these dark times?

I have to say it was so good to join the Brogan family in A Ration Book Childhood,Ida is out when she she's a face from the past and goes to say hello but what happens is going to shatter ida and her marriage.The Brogans are a family that pull together but can they heal the rift between their parents,as christmas is coming the family club together to put on a family spread.Queenie is still the same but what has happened has rocked her world too and she has sympathy for Ida.I have to say that this is the best book yet of Brogan Family and when you read it have tissues ready as you will need them.worthy of more stars but 5* is all i can give Thank you to Jean Fullerton for a BRILLIANT book.
