Find out about 80-year-olds who lied to join 'Dad's Army' and 12-year-olds who died defending Berlin to the bitter end. History has never been so horrible! With a bold new cover look and a heap of extra horrible bits at the back of the book, each best-selling title is sure to be a huge hit with yet another generation of Terry Deary fans.
