Postcards from a War

This is a great book about a kid who feels sad and afraid as her mom just went to war.He finds comfort in the stories of his grandfather, who saw his father sent to war. I really love the different questions that the kid asks, and the subtle ways they are answered by the grandfather. The illustrations were moving, as they included actual postcards from a the great grandfather sent to the Philippines during WWII. I haven't read a lot of children's books about war, but I know this one is a good one.

Thank you NetGalley and VanitaBooks, LLC for providing me with a free digital copy of this book in exchange for my honest opinion.
