A story of connection between the generations as Amy discovers her Granny Wren’s bravery during WWI. When Amy first met Granny Wren when she was little, she thought the name was because she was small and frail like the bird. But when she is 15 and goes to spend time with her, against her mother’s wishes, she discovers her Granny’s brave and adventurous history working as a WREN in WWI to deliver messages across the front lines on her trusty Douglas motorcycle. This beautifully written historical fiction will draw readers into Granny Wren’s story, from first signing up, to training and making firm friends and then into the shock and horrors of war. The nature of her experiences are described frankly, they aren’t focused on in gory detail which means that the book may be read by slightly younger readers, but nor are they glossed over, the stark realities of sudden loss and warfare bluntly addressed. I think readers from around the age of 12 will both relate to Amy’s modern experience and teenage fractions with her mother, before being absorbed into Granny Wren’s tale. Although the storyline itself is fictional, this book is based on the real events in France in 1918 and so would appeal to historical fiction fans. WRENS: answering the call is a quick, action packed read that will leave readers eagerly waiting for the second part of Granny Wren’s story.
