About this listen

The Dragonfly Pool by Eva Ibbotson is an exciting story of friendship and determination during the Second World War, from the award-winning author of Journey to the River Sea and The Star of Kazan. Illustrated with a gorgeous updated cover by Katie Hickey.

Tally Hamilton is furious to hear she is being sent from London to a horrid, stuffy boarding school in the countryside. And all because of the stupid war. But Delderton Hall is a far more interesting place than Tally ever imagined, and an exciting school trip to the beautiful and luscious kingdom of Bergania whisks Tally into an unexpected adventure . . .

Will she be able to save her new friend, Prince Karil, from terrible danger before it's too late?

If you like Goodnight Mr Tom then you’ll love this book.
Good performance but occasionally a bit rushed. And the sound is slightly distorted occasionally, with static noise.
