Discover the extraordinary lives of the inspiring girls who have lived throughout history at 6 Chelsea Walk.
When Josie goes to stay with her cousin Edith, she’s glad to be starting a new life away from the shame that has haunted her family since her brother chose not to fight in the war. Josie tries to fit in with Edith’s friends, playing on bombsites and teasing a timid classmate. But when the bullying gets out of hand, Josie faces a dilemma: she knows what it feels like to be picked on, but if she takes a stand, will Edith tell everyone her secret?
A deeply moving account of one girl’s quiet courage set amidst of the terror of the Blitz during the Second World War.
Reviews
I like how Josie and Ted's cousin Peter respects Ted even if he doesn't fight at war and also how Josie tries to stand up for Alice Haupptmaan.

I would really recommend this book to somebody else because it is all about how a girl faces bullying as she is German. Josie tries to stand up for her but she thinks that she will get bullied as well.
