(4) YA Since his father died in Afghanistan, Mike has become a model citizen: getting good grades; working after school; and taking care of his fragile, overprotective mother. Right before Mike turns sixteen, a series of letters comes from his father, written before he died and outlining the horrors of war. The advice-filled letters add a didactic tone to this coming-of-age story.
