This is a wonderful book which tells the story of a group of friends in Liverpool. On the first day of the long summer holidays a group of friends head for Springfield Park to play cricket.
A boundary hit results in the ball ending up on an adjacent disused railway line. While searching for the ball they find an old rocking horse: the head is missing and someone has hidden a large amount of cash in it.
They explore the rest of the tunnel. When they emerge at the other end they discover that the supermarket they know ought to be there has disappeared, and what they see is a rail yard filled with steam locomotives.
Somehow they have landed in 1941, and the country is at war. Back in 'their' time the robbers who hid the money are now searching for it. They know the boys have found it, but don't know how they managed to escape: for them, the end of the tunnel leads only to the supermarket car park, as it should.
Their boss (the meanest villain in Liverpool) isn't pleased. They return to Springfield Park as this is the only chance they have of finding the boys and the cash. The boys realise the tunnel is their only way back 'home', and both parties meet once more ...

 Julia:The Story of Julia Lennon "Mother, you had me... I never had   you." These were words written by John Lennon in his deeply personal song 'Mother'.

The song wasn't so much sang, but screamed out for its recording on the John Lennon/Plastic Ono Band album. The screaming style he used for the song, and the carefully chosen lyrics, could be described as the behavior of an angry, rebellious teenager.

But why was he so angry? What compelled him to write something so personal, especially during a critical stage of his career? Who was 'Mother'? Why was Julia like this? Who was that person? Was she just a good time girl who enjoyed being in the company of men because of the attention they gave her, or did she equally have deep, unstable issues that caused her to act out quite wildly?

It is such hard work to portray the lives of other people, to everyone's satisfaction. The life of Julia has been portrayed by so many without research. The excellent book by Julia Baird "Imagine This" has been my inspiration for this book. This is the story of Julia Lennon told in a way that is supported with archive documentation like no other book, it is also bringing publishing into the 21st century with the use of QR Code technology promising you the reader a full interactive experience.
