Davy Bowman’s dad and brother hung the moon. Dad looks forward to Halloween greater than a kid, and Davy’s brother, Bill, flies B-17s. Davy adores these two heroes and tries his better to follow their lead, especially now.
World War II has invaded Davy’s homefront boyhood. There’s an air raid drill in the classroom, and being truly a kid is an endless scrap drive. Bill has joined up, breaking their dad’s heart. It’s an intense, confusing time, and one which will invite Davy to grow up in a hurry.
This is one of Richard Peck’s finest novels–a tender, unforgettable portrait of the World War II homefront and a family’s love.
