Listen to the Moon by Michael Morpurgo
When young Alfie and his father find an injured girl, who cannot or will not speak, on a deserted island, they bring her to their home on an island off the coast of England to heal and to try and discover who she is. Outside their secluded island, England is at war with Germany and there are many islanders that suspicious of the young girl.
The young girl, known as Lucy Lost, slowly begins to adjust and become a part of life on the island, but she still remains a mystery because of her inability to talk. This is a story of how war can bring out the best and the worst in people and make us rethink some of our priorities and help us to remember what is truly important.
