Here is a new Book Rap Project for junior secondary students who have read
the novel Goodnight Mister Tom by Michelle Magorian and would like to
join in an on-line book discussion.
Goodnight Mister Tom is a very popular and touching story of young Willie
Beech who is evacuated to the country as Britain stands on the brink of the
Second World War. A sad, deprived child, he slowly begins to flourish
under the care of old Tom Oakley - but his new-found happiness is shattered
by a summons from his mother back in London.
The novel was first published by Kestrel in 1981, and in paperback by Puffin
in 1983.
Classes and interested individual students can participate in this Book Rap.
Heres how:
1. Join the GMT list (see details below)
2. Introduce yourself or your class to the list. Tell us about yourselves, your
