Fans of the Moffats, the Vanderbeekers, and the five little Peppers, get ready to meet the Moorbanks!
Kathryn, Avery, Jake, and Hanna are doing all they can to help with the war effort. Their new project is writing letters to Tommy Rankin, a soldier without a family. The only thing standing between them and the post office is raising enough money for postage. Join them as they face the realities of the World War 2 homefront, have adventures in their small town, and write letters for victory.
Kate (Willis) Hoppman is a follower of Jesus and lover of words. She enjoys quiet afternoons reading or watching movies with her nerdy husband, baking tall cakes, and cuddling her dogs.
4.7 stars (5/10 hearts). Okay, we all know what a huge fan I am of the Melendy and Moffat families I am—and the Peppers are good friends of mine. So of course I LOVED the wholesome big family and small community vibes! I enjoyed following along with the kids on their little adventures throughout the years, and I love how the author captured nostalgia for childhood and the past, as well as the beauty of heroism and the horror of slaughter. This is a quick, comforting, simple little WWII story for all ages. <3
