Historical House: Polly's March
Polly has an adventurous spirit, and dreams of becoming an explorer. But in 1914 women don’t have many rights, let alone career choices. Then Polly discovers that her neighbours are suffragettes, fighting for women’s right to vote.
Polly’s parents are scandalized, but Polly is intrigued. The more she thinks about their cause, the more determined she becomes to join the suffragettes’ protest march. But will she dare to defy her parents and do what she thinks is right? A fascinating story by Costa Award-winning author Linda Newbery.
