Books can change lives even in wartime. . . When World War II breaks out Carrie Anderson sets
up a bookstall at her local train station in the hope of providing a sense of escapism for
travellers troops and evacuees. Driven by an entrepreneurial spirit and armed with a colourful
array of Penguin paperbacks Carrie's business soon booms. And when she gifts a book to a
dashing officer an act of kindness becomes the beginning of Carrie's very own love story. But
as war rages on and Mike is posted abroad Carrie's world is turned upside-down. With the help
of her station community and the power of her paperbacks can Carrie find the strength to
battle through? ________________________ Praise for The Little Penguin Bookshop 'Romance
