The Children of the King by Sonya Hartnett
Along with their mother, Cecily and Jeremy are sent from London to the English countryside during the bombings of World War II.&#; Seeing other children who don’t have parents or family with them, Cecily decides that her family should take in one of the young refugees.&#; So she picks out May, a girl who looks just the right age to be a friend but also still young enough that Cecily can be in charge.&#; But May won’t be contained by Cecily, and soon is out exploring the countryside on her own.&#; She is the one who first discovers the two boys hiding in the ruins of Snow Castle.&#; Cecily joins May and the two of them meet the boys who are dressed in old-fashioned clothing.&#; Meanwhile in the evenings, Cecily and Jeremy’s uncle Peregrine tells the story of Richard III and his nephews.&#; The two stories weave together, two levels of history intertwined into one gorgeous tale.
