by Suzanne Collins
2013
I have FIVE copies of this fantastic memoir from YA author Suzanne Collins. Collins draws from her childhood memories of her father going off to a war. She knows he is in the jungle and that he will return in a year--two abstract concepts to small child.
Anyone who has ever had a parent, sibling, son or daughter in active duty will love this book.

All of my kids are wild over Suzanne Collins. The biography of her that I added to our collection last year is a favorite. They would love this book.

I teach diction imagery and mood with this, great symbolism also. Same author as Hunger games if you want to make associations.
