3✨I was going to unhaul the whole series until this story. Adam is now old enough (sort of) to enlist in the war. Being a kids story it is really mild, but it does go through the hard truth of war. Not everyone makes it, and there is significant growth from not just this book, but to complete the series as a coming of age story. #SeriesLove #DogsofLitsy
