(3) 4-6 At the conclusion of WWII, ten-year-old Donald Moon's father leaves the service. Donald remembers little about his father and is surprised to discover that the homecoming brings big changes, the largest being the family's move to a rundown farm in Montana. Episodic chapters provide a sometimes poignant, sometimes hilarious glimpse at one family's readjustment to post-war life.
