A stunning story from a master storyteller, published for the first time in an adult edition.


Both a love story and a deeply moving account of the horrors of the First World War, this book will reach everyone from 9 to 90.


Told in the voice of Private Tommo Peaceful, the story follows twenty-four hours at the front, and captures his memories of his family and his village life – by no means as tranquil as it appeared. Full of vivid detail and engrossing atmosphere, and leading to a dramatic and moving conclusion, Private Peaceful is both a compelling love story and a deeply moving account of the First World War.

Michael Morpurgo was the third Children’s Laureate, and is one of the most well-known and best-loved of children’s authors. He has written over ninety books, short stories, screenplays and two musicals, and has won many prizes, both here and in Europe, including the Whitbread Award for The Wreck of the Zanzibar, the Children’s Book Award for Kensuke’s Kingdom, and the Writers’ Guild Award and the Smarties Prize for The Butterfly Lion.
