My Daddy Was a Soldier

ebook
Jeannie misses her father, away fighting in the war. She and her mother plant a Victory Garden and write letters. But they worry too. Will he be all right? When will he come home? Jeannie's story is set during the Second World War. Many things are different today, but the feelings of a child whose parent has gone away to war don't change. When originally published, the National Council for Social Studies named this a "Notable Book in Social Studies" and called it "a moving account of the responses and emotions of those left behind." Parents Choice named it to their "Best Storybook" list and called it "an unusually accessible book for young children about war and wartime waiting."
