Editorial Reviews

From School Library Journal

Gr 2–5—Calkhoven has splendidly added a fictional war narrative to a factual cast of characters. Readers learn about the life of Judy, an English Pointer born in pre-WWII China. Through the chapters, Judy gets in all sorts of adventures and makes friends and foes. She is adopted by The Royal Navy initially to be a hunting dog; but after proving to be not-so-skilled at hunting, she shines as a watchdog for the ship and its men. As WWII begins, the tone becomes more serious as Judy and her companions weather the trials and tribulations throughout the war. Judy truly illustrates the "man's best friend" role and brings some lightheartedness to an otherwise serious time in history. VERDICT While Calkhoven adeptly synthesizes this adult-themed content for children, some of the details about war make this more suitable for upper elementary readers.—David Roberts, Salem Public Library, OH

Full content visible, double tap to read brief content.

Laurie Calkhoven has always been fascinated by history, and especially by the ordinary people who got caught up in extraordinary moments in history. She likes the small moments and bizarre facts that mostly get left out by the serious history books -- like whether or not a broken egg kept the American Revolution on track, and how putting your hands in your pockets and jiggling change could lead to an arrest in Nazi-occupied France.

While she was researching her biography of George Washington, she started to wondering about life during the Siege of Boston. Soon, a character named Daniel was whispering in her ear, telling her about his secret work for General George Washington, and she wrote the novel DANIEL AT THE SIEGE OF BOSTON, 1776. A biography of Harriet Tubman led to a second novel in her BOYS OF WARTIME series--WILL AT THE BATTLE OF GETTYSBURG, 1863. Her third historical novel, MICHAEL AT THE INVASION OF FRANCE, 1943 rounds out the series.

When she's not writing historical books, Calkhoven is at work on nonfiction books like I GREW UP TO BE PRESIDENT and historical mysteries for American Girl. You can find her online at www.lauriecalkhoven.com

    3.0 out of 5 stars A good older children's book.
    Reviewed in Canada on April 30, 2018
    It seems to be more written for children as it's written from a dog's supposed perspective. It was interesting even so. A
