My Name is Patricia
My book is about a frail, sensitive little girl with tender emotions having to grow up with no guidance or help.

Still Maturing
After describing in detail living in a small English village, Patricia goes on to relate an incident involving her father in World War II in which she secretly listens to him talking to his friend, Jim, after the war had ended. She was nearly twelve years old. What she heard was so shocking and she was so traumatised that in the morning it had all been forgotten.
