(2) 4-6 War is very real to Miss Loupe and her sixth graders at the military base school. When her brother goes missing in Afghanistan, Miss Loupe's students, armed with their drama skills, their desire to do something, and a lot of plastic army men, help everyone face the challenges of the homefront. Holmes's story, infused with heart and energy, leaves didactism at the door.
