No Time to Wave Goodbye is a heartbreaking story of the children that were evacuated during the WWII air raids on England. Ben Wicks wanted to provide a different side of the story. The author himself was part of the kinder transport system and was placed in a few foster families over the course of 3 years. Wicks reached out to the other children that had buried these memories deep in their minds. We get to see how the war affected the children and not just the war heroes of the historians, but actual people that had to suffer through this tragedy. No Time to Wave Goodbye is a quick and easy read. It's written very similarly to the published journals I am forever posting about. If you're a history buff and need a new book, this is definitely the one for you!
