On The Wings of Heroes by Richard Peck

My review

rating: 4 of 5 stars
The author bio on the back of this book says that Richard Peck has been called America's best living author for young adults. It's true. He can make you smell the summer in the air, hear the halloweeners sneaking through the streets and feel the creeping fear of war coming on. The language is spare and funny and perfectly pitched as the voice of a young boy. But the emotions come roaring through anyway. I love this book, as I loved all Peck's books.
