About this book
When a local emergency erupts in the summer of 1956, ten-year-old Junior Webster and his friends are pulled from their everyday games and forced to deal with a crisis that tests their courage. Their father, a decorated World War II veteran, becomes the example they look to as he confronts his own struggles while helping the town. Through these events Junior and his friends discover that heroism isn't limited to grand battles, but also shows up in quiet, everyday choices.
