All the Broken Pieces by Ann E. Burg

Oregon Battle of the Books
I thought this was a great story. I like that it was told in verse. I thought it helped ease a younger reader into the complex world of a young boy who has grown up so much. He has to struggle with prejudice, guilt ~ and so much more.
Vietnam is a story told in history class, but this is one of the first ones I've read that helped me understand it from a different perspective - from the story of a young boy.
I'm glad they picked this as a battle book. I hope at least some of the kids reading learn something from it.
