War 2 hits close to home for Sarabeth, Chet and Bro, when they suspect a
neighboring farmer is a Nazi spy. Eager to do anything to help end the war and
hasten the return of a Marine brother, fighting in the Pacific, they begin an
investigation. Media of that period--radio, newspapers, movies-- and bond
rallies urged children to partake in the war effort.
The caper turns into a series of
frightful mishaps as the children create their own web of deceptions. When
tragedy strikes, war is no longer a game and they are forced to accept its
reality. They discover patriotism combined with faulty ideas can yield alarming
results. "It's amazing what you believe when you think you're right,"
muses Chet. Their adventure is resolved when they
recognize people of different backgrounds must share the burdens of war.
This story provides insight into
the values and culture of World War 2., Today's
readers can empathize with the mutual concerns that confronted children during
the wartime atmosphere of that era. For children, the misfortunes of war are
relevant with every generation.
