About The War That Saved My Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley

Set during World War II, this 2015 middle-grade historical novel follows ten-year-old Ada, who has never been allowed outside her London apartment because of her twisted foot. When her younger brother Jamie is evacuated from the city, Ada secretly joins him, beginning a life far different from the one she has known.

Ada and Jamie are taken in by Susan Smith, and Ada gradually learns to ride a pony, read, and trust the woman caring for them. Their story brings wartime upheaval together with questions of family, safety, and belonging. It may suit young readers interested in World War II fiction and stories about children facing difficult circumstances.
