Summary: Interesting
Comment: This is the first in the American Girls Short Stories series about Molly McIntire, a nine-year-old girl living on the home front during World War 2. It is 1944, and Molly and her family are learning to live with wartime shortages and the absence of their Army doctor father. With Halloween right around the corner, Molly and her friends have to come up with a set of costumes that will include all of them. (Cinderella and her two stepsisters? Yeah, but who wants to be an ugly stepsister?) However, trouble is on the horizon as Molly finds herself drawn into a small war with her brother!

My daughter and I enjoyed this book. In many ways, it showed how the World War 2 home front was both similar to normal times and different. I especially liked the final chapter in this book, which looks back to 1944. I thought that it did a good job of explaining the war to children. Overall, we do recommend this book to you!

Summary: Great book for all ages!
Comment: It's 1944 and the world is at war.For Molly McIntire, life seems full of change. Her father is far away caring for wounded soldiers. Her mother is busy working for the Red Cross. Mrs. Gilford, the housekeeper,makes her eat terrible things like turnips from the Victory garden. And everyone in America is so serious and practical that glamorous Halloween costumes are hard to get. Molly's special hula skirt is a huge success-until Ricky,her pesty brother, plays a mean trick. Molly and her friends are determined to get back at him. One mean trick leads to another until the fighting goes too far.

Summary: A great book
Comment: This book is about nine-year-old Molly McIntire, who lives on the home front in 1944, during World War Two. Molly and her friends, Linda and Susan, decide to be Hawaiian hula dancers for Halloween. They tease Molly's brother Ricky because he has a crush on Molly's sister's friend. To get back at them, Ricky ruins their Halloween by spraying them with a hose and ruining their costumes and treats. They tell Molly's mother, but they think her punishment is too easy on Ricky. They decide to get back at him, but Molly's mom sees, and has a talk with them. Molly, Linda, and Susan have to do Ricky's laundry as a punishment. Soon Molly and Ricky are friends again, and the "war" between them ends.
