It is late August 1939: Britain is on the brink of war, and
preparations are under way to evacuate London's children to the
countryside. When twelve-year-old Tilly and her best friend Rosy
find out that they will not be able to take their beloved dog and
cat with them - and that, even worse, their pets will, along with
countless other animals, be taken to the vet to be put down - they
decide to take action. The two girls come up with the idea of
hiding them in a derelict hut in the woods and, when other children
find out and start bringing their rabbits, guinea pigs and
hamsters, their secret den turns into an emergency zoo. Inspired by
real events during the Second World War, Miriam Halahmy's novel is
a touching tale of courage, resourcefulness and camaraderie in
desperate times, as well as a stirring defence of animal welfare.
