An Angel For May

Tom, a young boy living in Yorkshire, finds an old fireplace in abandoned farmyard that is a portal to the 1940s. Travelling back to the Yorkshire of 60 years before, Tom befriends some of the hardworking farmers and evacuees of wartime England. Intermingling Tom's present-day troubles, like his mother's impending marriage, which Tom does not approve of, with the troubles of 1940s Yorkshire - like refugees, rationing, and bombing raids - An Angel for May is an adventure that is great for the whole family that does not oversimplify the problems of war or of adolescence.
