From the publisher

In Enemies, Marian Isabel Hurrell crafts a tender, thoughtful children's novel that explores the complexities of conflict, pride, and reconciliation through the innocent lens of childhood. Set in early 20th-century England, the story centers around the Rose family-Mrs. Rose and her four children: Hugh, Frank, Ronald, and Elsie-as they adjust to a life shaped by estrangement from their grandfather, Sir Matthew Rose.When their more privileged cousins, the Wilfrid Roses, move in next door, tensions rise, and a spirited rivalry begins. Dubbed the "Wars of the Roses," the children's playful battles soon take on deeper emotional weight. As the two families clash, the children confront their own assumptions, loyalties, and longing for connection. Through moments of mischief, misunderstanding, and gentle revelations, they learn that love, forgiveness, and empathy can heal even the most stubborn rifts.Perfect for listeners of classic children's literature, Enemies is a heartwarming tale about bridging divides and the quiet heroism of learning to make peace.
