It tells an educational and entertaining story using dialogue, mime, singing and

Lucy's War is an ideal aid to Key Stage II children studying World War II but is entertaIning
and stimulating for those who haven't looked at the subject before.
"All well done very good storyline with good factual content. Barking Dog never fail us."
