Beyond That, the Sea by Laura Spence-Ash
4.0
emotional hopeful medium-paced
Loveable characters: Yes

Thank you @celadonbooks @macmillan.audio for a copy of this book.

I have read a lot of historical fictions set in WWII, this is the first one that I've read about a child sent to America to be away from the war. The story is told in several POV so you see how the war impacts their lives. I enjoyed seeing the changes in not only Bea but also the Gregory family and also Bea's parents. The narration brought the story to life and I love that the story spanned so many years.
