"This historical fiction book comes with an informational authors note in the back that my students loved. This WWII text shares what a family did to help those struggling in the war. This true story was discovered in an old attic trunk. In this text they share how they traced shoe outlines out of newspapers to help provide the correct sizing for those without. My students loved this book and discussed it at length."
"What an amazing, beautiful book. After hearing Judge speak at ALA, I decided that I needed to read her books, and I'm glad I did! This is based on a true story. After WWII, people in Europe were in bad shape. No food, no clothes... so an American family starts to send supplies to friends in Germany, and the service grows until the American family is joined by still more American families in sending supplies to those in need. It's a really remarkable story, and Judge tells it simply and powerfully. Wow!"
"I recently heard this author speak about this book and was so happy to find it on the shelves in my library. It is touching and beautiful. It was well written and accessible to children and has a lot of potential for programming."
