Inspired by award-winning author Elizabeth Laird's own childhood
growing up in post-war London, The Misunderstandings of Charity
Brown is a classic coming-of-age story, perfect for fans of The
Skylarks' War and I Capture the Castle. Charity Brown’s life is
about to change – her family have been left a huge, rambling
house by a mysterious benefactor, and her parents want to move in
and throw open its doors to the needy. Only recently back from
hospital after months of isolation with polio, Charity is
over-protected and lonely as the only child still at home. Her
family are very religious – her sisters are called Faith and
Hope, and her brother Ted is studying to be a preacher – so she's
both excited and nervous at the thought of sharing her family and
new home with strangers. It’s a recipe for confusion, joy and
endless misunderstandings, including with the new neighbours, an
Austrian family with a daughter just Charity’s age . . .
