On My Honor by Patty Smith HallMy rating: 💛💛💛💛
So far, every story in this series taught me something new and different about WW2 which is one of the reasons I am loving this series. Each story can be read as a standalone.
In On My Honor, I have learned about German attacks on the coast of America, and the participation of girl scouts in the war efforts. I enjoyed the girl scout characters in On My Honor. The author pinned down the voice of 12- and 13-year-olds in a very entertaining way which brought lightheartedness to this story.
The writing flowed smoothly and quickly, which made for an easy and quick read.
