Pupil post - Carrie's War


This term we have been reading a piece of historical fiction by Nina Bawden. It is a book based on the experience's of children evacuated from London during World War 2.

Carrie and Nick (the main characters) are sent to Wales for their safety. They had to live with the kind-hearted Auntie Lou and the cruel Mr Evans. They met great friends like: Albert Sandwich, Johnny Gotobed (Gotobed - get the joke!) and Hebizbah Green.

How would you feel if you were evacuated?
Or if you left your parents in the Danger zone?
What are your thoughts about the book Carrie’s War?

  1. Well first of all if i were evacuated i would feel mortified because 1 i'm going away from my home town the town i grew up in and i would hardly know anyone there.
    Leaving my parents in a danger zone would not be one of my best pleasures because they are my everything after God.

  2. I would feel quite heart-broken because I have to leave the place I grew up and leave my parents behind. I can't even bare to think about leaving my parents behind. If my parents stayed; I would too.

  3. First of all if I was evacuated I would feel so lonely and if I didn't have a brother or sister I would have felt a bit better.

  5. I would feel very upset because I do not want to leave my parents and my family. if someone didn't start war long ago this would never happen. leaving my parents in the danger zone would a nightmare for life. if that really happened I would wear a fancy adult cloth and some high hills so they think iam a aldut so I can stay in the war .

  6. I would have felt really terrorised because I never would have think about going anywhere with complete strangers. If my parents were in a danger zone then I wold have fated, because they might get kill or injured. My thoughts about carrier's war is good. At the moment it has really shown me how children and parents might have been though. It saw a hard time for them>

  8. How would you feel if you were evacuated?
    If I've been taken away from my parents, I would cry until my tears run out. It would be a
    horrible day that I would never forget. I would pinch my self 100 times, telling myself that its a dream. I wouldn't even blink, I wouldn't talk and I wouldn't move. Never in a billion years!

  12. If I was evacuated from my parents, it would actually have a negative impact on them and I would be heart-broken. It would be a NIGHTMARE! I might even blink my eyes so many times to tell me that it is not a dream. Carries war is a good book that tells you about the WW2 and it has interesting descriptions.
