Coming on Home soon by Jaqueline Woodson is a beautiful story that shows the life of a little girl dealing with her mother going off to work during the war. It shows a beautiful reality of what women went through to provide for their family. The daughter and grandmother wait patiently missing the presence of the mother. The pictures are realistic and warm and remind you of the love that poured out in your mothers hugs.
The War that Save my Life by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley is a beautifully written piece set in the time of WWII. It tells the gut wrenching story of a little orphan girl (Ada) and their brother being taken in by a woman who has no earthly idea how to raise a child. It shows how a relationship is grown between the children and Susan in the world's most difficult time.
