Hide and Seek Reviews

'A powerful wartime adventure.' THE BOOKSELLER 'A gripping, utterly convincing wartime spy story' LOVEREADING4KIDS 'Hide and Seek brings to vivid life the courage of young people who risked all in the French resistance in the Second World War.Young Amelie Dreyfus is playing hide and seek when the soldiers come for her Jewish family. A much more dangerous game of cat-and-mouse ensues as she half-starves, makes common cause with resistance operatives and eventually outperforms a whole cadre of British spies with her cunning and courage. Who can you trust, Scott-Elliot asks.' THE OBSERVER 'An epic, inspiring coming-of-age novel, which thrills from the opening pages and doesn't lose its grip' CHRIS SOUL
