'What Are We Fighting For?' is a poetry collection that explores the concept of war in an accessible way for younger readers. Fascinating and moving in equal measure, there are poems about incredibly brave dogs, cats and pigeons; the Christmas truce of WWI when soldiers played football in No Man's Land; poems about rationing and what it was like to be an evacuee; poems about modern warfare and the reality of war today; plus lots of amazing true historical facts.
