Meet the kids in Mrs. Z’s wacky and wonderful third-grade class! Wyatt Hill has a stepbrother with a lot of opinions, a stuffed lizard who knows everything Wyatt wants to say, and the beginnings of a voice that might end up surprising the whole school. Nobody knows anything about Wyatt Hill...

Joshua Shores was just nineteen years old when he deployed to Iraq in 2005. A Midwestern kid raised in a close-knit, supportive family, he had developed a strong sense of duty and honor. Both sides of his family had proudly served their country, fostering a legacy of service that would guide his own path. Serving in Alpha Company, 1st Battalion, 5th Marine Regiment, Shores was a teenager among battle-hardened peers, far removed from the naïve assumptions of war that he had once held.
