Eastbourne was the most raided town in the South East during World War II. Jane Kirby, the author of Jane's War, lived in Willingdon, a village just inland from there.
She was 9 when the war started and 15 when it finished and writes of her life in the village at that time. Read about how her and her friends managed with gas-masks, air-raids, ration books, evacuation to Hertfordshire, doodlebugs and the loss of loved ones.
As a retired school teacher, Jane Kirby has written this as suitable for History Key Stage 2 - The Impact of the Second World War on the People of Britain. It should also appeal to anyone, who like herself, was a child at that time.
