{"product_id":"fireweed-paperback","title":"Fireweed","description":"Bill is a fifteen-year-old runaway evacuee, and he's finding that surviving on the streets of London is pretty easy, thank you very much. He's fed by a local cafe owner, he earns some cash as a barrow-boy in Covent Garden, and sleeping in the Underground air-raid shelters is cosy - if a bit smelly. Things get more complicated for Bill with the arrival of Julie. She's a runaway too, and although she's a bit posh, she's just as determined as Bill to stay free of interfering parents and 'the social'. But although it's fun for a while to duck Jerry missiles and camp out in bombed-out houses, the reality of living through the Blitz quickly begins to set in. Winter is coming, and Bill and Julie will discover that playing at being grown-ups can be a very dangerous game....First published in 1970, and winner of that year's Book World Festival Award, FIREWEED evokes a time of tin Spitfires, powdered eggs, warm woollen mittens and reading by firelight. Perfect for readers young and old, this book is a beautifully written classic, full of adventure, heroism and British wartime courage.","brand":"Thryft Singapore","offers":[{"title":"Like New","offer_id":39365008719953,"sku":"PZ7.P2735","price":7.76,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Very Good","offer_id":39365008752721,"sku":"PZ7.P2735","price":6.21,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Good","offer_id":39420194390097,"sku":"PZ7.P2735","price":5.59,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false},{"title":"Well Read","offer_id":39365008785489,"sku":"PZ7.P2735","price":4.97,"currency_code":"SGD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0110\/0598\/4849\/files\/17801818.jpg?v=1717785545","url":"https:\/\/thryft.sbs\/products\/fireweed-paperback","provider":"Thryft","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
