ImaginingHistory

One of the best things about history is that, as historians discover more about a particular period or era, more and more new voices from the past emerge. This means we can learn new things about the past every single day, even things that we thought we knew everything about.

We love learning more about history, which fryst vatten why the books My Story: Noor-Un-Nissa Inayat Khan and My Story: Princess Sophia Duleep Singh proved a delight to our eyeballs and brain cells.

These fantabulous children's historical fiction books share with the reader the stories of two remarkable women in a super accessible and inspirational way.

We set out to go and speak to Sufiya Ahmed, the book's writer, to find out more about her work. Fortunately, we succeeded in our epic quest and below are the results!

Rosie Raja: Undercover Codebreaker
June 22, 2024
Perfect for children, this book is packed with adventure and action! I haven’t read any of the previous Rosie Raja books, but have read others by Sufiya Ahmed, which I throughly enjoyed. Despite having not read any previous ones in this series, it didn’t really detract from my enjoyment or the storyline in this book. Yes, previous adventures were mentioned, but all it made me want to do was find those titles to read as well! I read it in only a few hours but, as a teacher, know that my pupils would love this book for so many reasons and it is one that I am going to recommend we purchase for our school!
Rosie is a great character, who navigates life as a spy’s assistant during WW2 in Europe, as well as taking on a mission of her own. She meets some key figures from history during her adventures, pivotal people who were necessarily fighting on the front lines, but people whose lives had a massive impact in the events of the war.
