Open up a world of adventure, bravery and dramatic wartime scenes with Phil Earle's magnificent World War Two animal stories.

Inspired by a true story from World War Two, the award-winning When the Sky Falls follows Joseph when he is left alone to guard a silverback gorilla's cage in a deserted zoo. If the bombs fall and set the animal rampaging free, will Joseph have the courage to pull the trigger?

In While the Storm Rages, Noah and his friends fight to rescue all the animals who are at risk upon the outbreak of war.

In Until the Road Ends, Peggy must leave her beloved dog Beau behind in war-torn London, but Beau is determined to find her again.
