The subject matter was an excellent topic for our group (great discussion matter), but all agreed the book was poorly written.

The author tried to make a book out of Once Upon a tTown that should of been a short story or an article in a magazine.

An easy read about a community that came together to serve soldiers traveling to go serve in the war. We were lucky to have a leader who lived in Nebraska during that time and she brought us maps and told us about the context of that time - she even had her family's ration books from those days to share. It made the story come alive for us. Do a bit of study on the history of the state and people of that time to help understand the time and the people more.
