World War II.
Eddie\'s war is right here in Ellisville..
Let Thomas fight World War II.
Eddie\'s in the middle of it all, trying to figure out what\'s right.
And that redhead Sarah definitely likes him-unless maybe she hates him.
And Eddie faces more grown-up problems at home: A fire that might be arson, Grampa Rob all stubborn and mean, Grama Lucy hiding something.
Suddenly the war doesn\'t seem so far away.
But then America joins the war and Eddie\'s brother Thomas goes off to fly a bomber.
Ellisville, where the big news story is gophers in the graveyard and the new bank alarm.
But Eddie\'s too young to fight, and their farm in Illinois is a long way from the fighting.
Eddie Carl thinks America should stop him-it\'s just plain right.
Hitler is threatening to take over the world.
