Kitty is not a child from the Kindertransport, but a Jewish Londoner who is evacuated along with the rest of London's children to the safety of the British countryside. But after lodging in a series of foster homes, she decides that not even the imminent threat of Nazi bombs can keep her away from her Mum and Uncle Yudi in London. A new epilogue brings the story up to war's end and the historic victory celebration outside Buckingham Palace. Praise for I'm Not Going Back \"Kitty recounts life in a country village under the thumb of a dour and cold taskmaster. She is a spirited, determined youngster whose mind is set upon returning to London . . . . She is a very strong and engaging character, even at her young age.\" - Jewish Book World \"The details are absorbing . . . Kitty gets completely inside her young personality\" - London Jewish Chronicle \"Like a friend telling you about her experiences over coffee.\" - Marcia Weiss Posner, Association of Jewish Libraries \"At each stage in  her] full life, Ms Wintrob has displayed the same spunk and spirit she did as a 10-year-old girl forced to leave her Jewish working-class home with no indication where she was going or when she would be back.\" - National Post (Toronto)\u003c\/p\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eNumber of Pages:\u003c\/strong\u003e 198\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003eDimensions:\u003c\/strong\u003e 0.45 x 8 x 5.25 IN\u003c\/div\u003e\n            \u003cdiv\u003e\n\u003cstrong\u003ePublication Date:\u003c\/strong\u003e September 01, 2014\u003c\/div\u003e\n            ","brand":"BooksCloud","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":47484009808125,"sku":"9780991900930","price":35.73,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0817\/3414\/0157\/files\/eUlLRVVxcFpEckhWNkV0TktyM0pUdz09.webp?v=1777669264","url":"https:\/\/booktolia.com\/products\/im-not-going-back-wartime-memoir-of-a-child-evacuee-paperback","provider":"booktolia","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
