Dear Mrs. Bird - AJ Pearce

Emmy Lake has dreams of being an important war correspondent, so when she spies an ad in the newspaper for a office junior at a large paper she applies and gets the job.  She finds herself working at a ladies magazine assisting the formidable Mrs Bird in replying to letters about womens problems .  As the Germans are still bombing London she also helps at the fire service, taking calls for the crews to respond to. 

A sweet book that transported me to wartime London which I could easily see being a masterpiece theatre movie.  4/5
