A War and a Wonder

by Students from Class 5JH at Pilton Bluecoat Academy

It’s 2045, and Isla is bored. She accidentally flies her magic carpet under a rainbow and finds herself on a Scottish island back in 1940, meeting Jacob, an ex-Navy hero who is hiding from the world after the death of his brother on a warship. Isla uses her time-travelling carpet to help Jacob meet his brother again. Isla and Jacob are both given inspiration by the lake to do something really useful with their lives.
