I'm almost finished with a book called "The War That Saved my Life" by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley. It's about a girl named Ada who has something called a clubfoot, which is where someone who has one's foot is twisted. This book is about Ada's life during WWII. Her mother, Mam, is ashamed by her foot and locked her up in her room for most of her life, but she runs away with her little brother Jamie to the country (They live in London) and meet Susan Smith, the woman who is forced to take the 2 in because nobody wanted to take them in. They quickly bond with Susan and Ada learns so many different things along the way.
