It is about a boy named Harry. And he loves his grandfathers stories about the past in the war time. So Harry records every bit of the story that his grandpa tells. But then Harry's father died in the war as well. But nobody knew how. they don't know if he was shot or anything. Then later on Harry gets into trouble for nothing he didn't do. And he didn't want to get into trouble so he declined a war.

"Malaya sir. He got left behind when the Japs invaded. He lived in the jungle with other soldiers. They call them guerrillas. That's not the beat - your - chest - King - Kong gorillas, but......"

"Thank you Harry; I know what kind of guerrillas you mean."

Review:
Rosie is about to find out that sometimes it is very difficult to be an independent thinking sort of girl.

Excerpt: 
All Rosie wants is to play rugby for the school team, she is good too. But there is one problem Rosie can't play because there has to be 3 girls and if there's not 3 girls she can't play.
