Delight your children this Christmas with this enthralling book of tales. This story begins with a young miss looking after three children in Scotland. Their idyllic country life is soon shattered when soldiers bomb the house and they are forced to flee to a nearby cave, where she tells them tales to ease their fear at night . Winter is coming and soon the cave will be too cold, so they journey south through England to the Isle of Wight and from there they ferry to France, where a farmer takes pity upon the poor lot and allows them to live in his loft. They work hard during the day, but at night, they play games and tell stories. This book ends with a wonderful white wedding, and a promise from Gran to tell more tales tomorrow on Christmas Day.
