Torn apart - the partition of India, 1947 - Swapna Haddow

A thrilling and moving account of the largest movement
of people in history, telling both sides of the story through the
voices of children at the heart of Partition.

As the new India and Pakistan are born, can the friendship
between these two children rise above the tensions between the
two countries?

When the British announced they would be leaving India, a feeling
of hope bubbled up in towns and villages across the country -
they would be free to rule themselves at last! But deciding to split
the country in two - Partition - would soon mean so much more.
