The War I Finally Won by Kimberly Brubaker Bradley


For Ada, World War II has been a good thing, so far. It got her out of a trapped existence with an abusive mother, the surgery she needed to fix her clubfoot, a guardian who seems to love her, friends, even a pony of her own. Now that her life is changing for the better, Ada can see that others face great challenges, too, even those who seem to have everything. As the sacrifices of war come closer to home, is it Ada’s turn to help? And why is figuring out who to help so confusing? Readers will welcome another chance to share Ada’s story in this very satisfying sequel to The War That Saved My Life.
