Ghost Army of World War II Hardcover – May 31, 2001
by Jack Kneece
The 23rd Headquarters Special Troops was a force of only 1,000 men who, with skilled deceptions, often masqueraded as 34,000.
I really enjoyed this book. A fascinating story of a bunch of artists, actors and so on that fooled the Axis powers into thinking there were Allied Forces where there weren’t with blow up tanks and trucks, miniature towns and other forms of deception.

“A Wrinkle in Time is one of my favorite books of all time. I’ve read it so often, I know it by heart.” ―Meg Cabot
“Know somebody who hasn’t met Mrs Whatsit, Mrs Who or Mrs Which? Larson’s colorful panels bring Madeleine L’Engle’s brilliant time-travel favorite to life in an exciting new way. This is page-turning eye candy of the highest order.” ―James Patterson
Late one night, three otherworldly creatures appear and sweep Meg Murry, her brother Charles Wallace, and their friend Calvin O’Keefe away on a mission to save Mr. Murray, who has gone missing while doing top-secret work for the government. They travel via tesseract–a wrinkle that transports one across space and time–to the planet Camazotz, where Mr. Murray is being held captive. There they discover a dark force that threatens not only Mr. Murray but the safety of the whole universe.
In the decades since its first publication, A Wrinkle in Time has never been illustrated. Now, Eisner and Ignatz Award-winning Hope Larson takes the classic story to a new level with her vividly imagined interpretations of tessering and favorite characters like the Happy Medium and Aunt Beast. Perfect for old fans and winning over new ones, this graphic novel adaptation is a must-read.

“The memorable story of Meg Murry, Charles Wallace Murry, and Calvin O’Keefe’s adventure across space and time is conveyed with all the intellectual and emotional impact of the original novel.” ―BCCB
