“I’ve been waiting for this book to come out for months. Russ is a singer and this book is very inspirational. My favorite quote is ‘The journey starts and ends with you’”. - Madison, grade 12 #WhatWatertownReads RUSS

“This book would be good for the unit on family. It’s about a soldier and his bond with another soldier, whose mother asked him to protect her son in war; he feels he failed her. It shows family in multiple ways, including how war affects family.” -JP, gr 12 #WhatWatertownReads
