my favorite character was Lisa. It was all about some kids who used an old bomb shelter as a sort of mini home.it was fiction,I would recommend it

The best book in the world, I liked when the children made the "castle" their own and kept it a secret!

I hadn't read any books by this author before but enjoyed this one. It would have been nice if some of the illustrations were in colour. The ending wasn't what I expected.

I really liked reading this book, Tim and his friends find a hide out they called the Castle. I love building dens and making it into a real exciting place to play . This book has a dog in it called Raffetty. I like reading Michael Morpurgo books they are exciting and interesting. This is good read for 8+

The story was a little too long before it got exciting. I liked the metal WW1 hat.

I liked the soldier hat and the war things that they found in the castle. It was a good story. I was sad at the end because they had to leave the castle.

I thought it was going to be rainy day and they wont be able to find a shelter and I thought they were going to a field that had sheep and they found a house in the field and my favourite person was Tom because he was a being good. i would recommend it to someone else because they can read it too.
