What's My Secret War About

Publisher Summary

In a diary that brings to life the dramatic happenings on the home front during World War II, Madeline Beck is living in a boardinghouse with her mother while her father is on an aircraft carrier guarding the Pacific Coast. After discovering that a German U-boat has landed near her home – a little-known, true incident on Long Island – she and her classmates form “Kids Fight for Freedom” and participate in the home front war effort.
