By Kate Albus

Paperback

A heartwarming story about three siblings, evacuated from London to live in the countryside, looking for a permanent home–and a new meaning for family.

A New York Public Library Best Book of the Year


It is 1940 and William, 12, Edmund, 11, and Anna, 9, aren’t terribly upset by the death of the not-so-grandmotherly grandmother who has taken care of them since their parents died.

But the children do need a guardian, and in the dark days of World War II London, those are in short supply, especially if they hope to stay together. Could the mass wartime evacuation of children from London to the countryside be the answer?

It’s a preposterous plan, but off they go– keeping their predicament a secret, and hoping to be placed in a temporary home that ends up lasting forever. Moving from one billet to another, the children suffer the cruel trickery of foster brothers, the cold realities of outdoor toilets and the hollowness of empty stomachs.

But at least they find comfort in the village lending library– a cozy shelter from the harshness of everyday life, filled with favorite stories and the quiet company of Nora Müller, the kind librarian.  The children wonder if Nora could be the family they’ve been searching for. . . . But the shadow of the war, and the unknown whereaouts of Nora’s German husband complicate matters. 

A Place to Hang the Moon is a story about the importance of family: the one you’re given, and the one you choose. Filled with rich, sensory prose, allusions to classic children’s stories like A Little Princess, Mary Poppins, and The Story of Ferdinand, this cozy tale with a classic feel is sure to warm your heart. Don’t miss Kate Albus’s Nothing Else But Miracles which takes place in New York City during WWII and was described as “historical fiction at its finest” in a starred review from School Library Journal.

So so...
Size: Medium, Unit Count: 2
They do what they advertised. You can NOT walk in them you will stretch them and pop a hole in them. You cannot sleep in them unless your going to wear larger cotton socks with them to keep them in place. They are easy to wash and dry which is nice. I will need to buy another pair. Great if your gonna watch a movie or binge TV in.

Great for dry feet or to help lock in moisturizer or medication

They’re stretchy and don’t feel goopy, I use them daily and they’re working great they keep my feet nice and hydrated and soft. I’ve been using them along with lotion to help hydrate my skin so they aren’t rough during the winter. They are comfy and if you must get up they’re grippy and don’t slip or slide they stay put. They’re super easy to put on and take off.
