Battle on the Beach

Beschreibung

Willy, a military jeep and Sherman, an army tank train together for D-Day in WWII. They are teased and bullied because of their lack of skills. During the battle, their loyal friendship, values, and heroics save others. Damaged and left for scrap, it looks hopeless for the two heroes. What occurs next is something they'd never dream could happen.

Autor

Dave DeVisser's interest in World War II history began fifteen years ago when he purchased and restored a 1942 military jeep. Since then, he has built an extensive library of books on the history of the war. Dave is a member of the Military Vehicle Preservation Association (MVPA) and the Society of Children's Book Writers and Illustrators (SCBWI). Dave enjoys displaying his jeep and sharing his knowledge at veterans' Honor Flight Tours and other events. Dave's father was a veteran of WW2, serving in the Philippine Islands and Okinawa. The motivation to write this story originated in Dave's desire to spark children's interest in the history of WW2 and show them the value of loyal friendships.
