Most of the book deals with their ways - right and wrong - of dealing with the situation. At the end, Keith finds pride in helping blind solders.

Wonderful Book!

Oh how I enjoyed this book! I have heard of Eleanor H. Porter because of her Pollyanna book but had never realized that she might have written more until I discovered LibriVox! Thank you so much for the wonderful stories! I enjoy hearing them so much!!!
