Christmas with the Engine Girls

The perfect Christmas story which follows four women who arrive at Nottingham Aircraft Centre during the festive season. They have come to build aeroplanes to help the war effort but there is love and friendship to be enjoyed this Christmas time . . .

Daisy Styles grew up in Lancashire, surrounded by a family and community of strong women whose tales she loved to listen to. It was from these women, particularly her vibrant mother and Irish grandmother, that Daisy learned the art of storytelling. There was also the landscape of her childhood - wide, sweeping, empty moors and hills that ran as far as the eye could see - which was a perfect backdrop for a saga, a space big enough and wild enough to stage a drama, one about women's lives during the Second World War.
