Title: Goodnight Mr Tom
Review: This is a great story for older children. I used it with a class of 11 - 13 year olds where we read the book first and then did a movie study. The story follows a period of time during WW2 in England when evacuees were sent from London to the country. This story is complex because it covers many levels; War, child abuse, mental health, death, friendships and relationships.The movie is well acted, although my class was disappointed that some of the 'book bits' were missing.Be sure to have tissues for laugh out loud fun as well as sad tears!
