A Boy At War by Harry Mazer
The best-selling author of Snow Bound brings us a poignant depiction of the events of December 7, 1941, from the perspective of fourteen-year-old Adam Pelko. While fishing with friends, Adam watches as Japanese fighter planes attack and sink most of America's Pacific fleet, including the Arizona, aboard which Adam's father is stationed. Over the next few days, Adam searches for answers -- about his friends, the war, and especially, his father. But Adam soon learns that sometimes there are no answers.
