'The Skylarks War' by Hilary McKay
We follow brother and sister Clarry and Peter who exist for their summers in Cornwall at their grandparents - where they link up with their wonderfully enigmatic cousin Rupert.
We watch them grow up against the harsh backdrop of the 1st World War- life has forced them all to cope and survive- their September to July's are governed by expectations and limitations placed on them by their 'absent' parents.
