I really enjoyed this book by Rich Rostron for several reasons: I am an enthusiastic reader of World War II historical fiction set in the Pacific Theater.

I loved the format of an old veteran telling his great-grandson the story of the battle. I also really liked the way the author wove the war story into the teenager’s (Kyle) need to learn how to deal with a bully at school.
