Links The Home Front Website © Copyright MM-MMIXI - All Rights Reserved Recommended Children's Books As the Wartime Memories Project is proving so popular with school children and older students of the time, this section has been set up with children in mind. The study center pages provide opportunties to ask questions and for those who lived through the war years to answer them plus a collection of tales sent in by people who were children during the war years. It is hoped that this section will build into a useful study aid for all students of the war years. If you have any suggestions for additional features in this section please get in touch.
