Run Rabbit Run by Barbara Mitchelhill

Run Rabbit Run by Barbara Mitchelhill

When Lizzie's dad refuses to fight in the Second World War, the police come looking to arrest him. Desperate to stay together, Lizzie and her brother Freddie go on the run with him, hiding from the police in idyllic Whiteway. But when their past catches up with them, they're forced to leave and it becomes more and more difficult to stay together as a family. Will they be able to? And will they ever find a place, like Whiteway, where they will be safe again?

"An enjoyable adventure story" * The School Librarian *
"A well-told story showing that bravery comes in many guises." * Carousel *
"This is a story which would read aloud well, and raise many questions about war and those who do not believe it is right to fight." * Books For Keeps *
"Not only enjoyable but also a useful way to introduce readers to aspects of WWII less prevalent in children's fiction." * The School Librarian *
"(A) poignant novel." * Red House Children's Book Award, Pick of the Year *
