Johnnie's Blitz by Bernard Ashley
During the bombing of South London during the Blitz, toddler Shirley survives when a bomb hits her house, but runs into the night to try to find her mother. Johnnie, on the run from reform school, becomes Shirley's saviour, but knows that if he helps her return to her parents, he risks capture.
