This is my summary of a book on Love You, Soldier.
The book begins with a young Jewish girl named Katie. The story first begins in New York. Katie's dad who is sent to fight in World War 2. Katie and her mother work hard with her father away. Katie then makes friends with her neighbor downstairs Mrs. Leistein. Later Katie's mother's friend Louise comes to their house since her husband is away in the war. Louise is also pregnant.

Katie is in the library one day when a really large storm came. Katie came home and Louise told her she was in labor. Katie took her too the hospital and the baby Rosie was born. Later another event happened a telegram came saying that Katie's father had died. Katie and her mother were devastated but still managed to move on.

This book was good and I would urge others to read this book too.

Compelling storyline of a young girl who deals with being separated from her father due to war, death of a loved one, and transitions in life. Highly recommended for those who have experienced or are experiencing a birth, loss, or separation. ( )

Katie, a Jewish girl living in New York City during World War II, sees many dynamic changes in her world as she ages from seven to ten waiting for her father to return from the war. ( )
