Sisi by Allison Pataki
Based around a true story, Davis's Song portrays a time in the life of a teenage girl growing up in Southern England during World War 2. It touches upon the hardship both she and her family faced at a time of war. Surrounded by military training camps, Ina sees the effect American allied troops have on everyday life. The privileges the soldiers have and the hostilities they face. She learns firsthand how cruel people, including her own family, can be when an English girl falls in love with an American soldier. Ina's determination to stay true to her love wins through, but at what cost?
