Cracker!: The Best Dog in Vietnam by Cynthia Kadohata

4.0

Liked this for what it was. It's a great overview of the army, special forces, and dog sniffer units that were on the ground in Vietnam. This one would be good for a boy who likes historical fiction. It does contain military stuff like swearing, booby traps, and peoples' heads getting blown off. But the story of Cracker and Rick is sweet and Kadohata's prose is clear and easy.
