World War I Tales the Bomber Balloon

It is November 1916, and every night sees the danger of Zeppelins in the skies above England. Police patrol the streets making sure that nobody makes a noise or shines a light that could betray them to the pilots of these huge, silent bomber balloons. The tale tells how young Millie sets out on an errand in her Essex village and finds herself caught up in an adventure. A Zeppelin crashes and its crew need to make their way to safety - and they come face to face with the people they've been bombing. The master historical storyteller gives readers aged 7+ a fascinating look at the First World War in the air, from both sides.
