One Last Joyride por Dean Hughes

Earl and Teller strike out on a road trip partly to escape the care center they live in and partly to recapture a part of the life that feels like it's passed them by.

Before the Dawn por Dean Hughes

I liked the characters immensely and felt drawn to Leah and her struggles to connect with the sisters who are different than her. She works on a farm because she is a widow and is raising two children. Life is hard during the depression years. I found many similarities between the challenges then and the challenges now. It’s all about connection, hood and faith.

Soldier Boys por Dean Hughes

OK short novel about two boys, one German and one American and how they meet up together at the very end. The story follows each alternately : farm boy from Brigham City, Utah and a German boy who was active in the Hitler youth. Good for comparisons about how it's always the young boys who pay the price in wars. This would be a good one for modern kids to learn something about WW II and about tragedy of war in general.
