Shooting The Moon

It is a very good book so far and I really enjoy reading it!:)

The book is about a girl named Jamie and her family is all about the war and when her brother goes off to vietnam to be a medic, she can't help but be jealus of him and when she is so excited about all the letters of the real war herbrother sends her something very unexcepcted. A role of film. Her brother was always into the whole deal of photography but when Jamie gets that she is so suprised that she doesn't know what to do but develop the tape. So she works at the rec center (her father is colonel and she is a volunteer there) she finds out from Private Hollister that there is this strange man who comes to thye rec center and develops film that he gets and apparently he is very good at it. So, Jamie learns how to gat the film developed by the man (his name is Sgt. Byrd) Private Hollister also says that the guy went out to extreme combat and he described it as if you just got there you would most likly get shot once you get off the helocopter. And thats the part im on.

Connection: Whenever I read this book I think of my grandpa going off to the war to fight for cuba a long time ago

Reaction: My reaction is sad because I would think that Jamie would be sad about her brother going off to war.

Opinion: Same as the reaction I think she should care more, Even though they call the brother a war hero.
