Produktinformationen "Brownie the War Dog"
"Brownie, a rambunctious one-year-old German Shepherd dog, belonged to a 11-year-old Oren Kendley in King, Wisconsin, whose family decided to enlist him in the military's war dog program during World War II. After training, Brownie served as a sentry on a Pacific island, standing watch to keep US soldiers safe, until his service was cut short due to an eye injury. Brownie was sent home and reunited with Oren and his family, who adjusted to personality changes from the dog's service.

Kids will learn about World War II, military service, and dealing with differences such as Brownie's injury through the eyes of its young main character, Oren"--
