Twelve-year-old Trevor Firestone loves playing war-based video games and he idolizes his great-grandfather Jacob who came home from World War II a celebrated hero; now ninety-three Jacob wants to retrace his journey in memory and reality and return to the small French village that his unit liberated, and Trevor is going with him--but not everyone in the town want Jacob to come, and Trevor is going to learn an important lesson: real war is not a video game, and valor and heroism can be very murky concepts.

Enjoyed this, even though it didn't read like a traditional Korman book. The book moves back and forth through time and I found I enjoyed reading the WWII scenes as opposed to the modern time line. I also felt that the ending was a little flat and felt forced. Good read for students interested in WWII or those who don't know much about WWII. Portrays the battles realistically without being too graphic for younger readers and gives the a lot of good information about the Normandy invasion and the day-today experiences of WWII American soldiers through Jacob's reminiscing about his training and time as a solider.
