Don't miss this YALSA Award for Excellence in Nonfiction Finalist from critically acclaimed author Deborah Heiligman. Amid the constant rain of German bombs and the escalating violence of World War II, British parents by the thousands chose to send their children out of the country: the wealthy, independently; the poor, through a government relocation program called CORB. In September 1940, passenger liner SS City of Benares set sail for Canada with one hundred children on board. Out of tragedy, ordinary people became heroes. This is their story. Includes a special afterword exclusive to the paperback. More Awards and Praise for Torpedoed: The True Story of the World War II Sink
