Once a Shepherd
by Glenda Millard
Age: Kindergarten-3rd grade
Tough Issue: Death
History: World War
Phew. This book leaves much to be discussed and would best be facilitated by a teacher while doing a unit on war or loss. While the text is relatively minimal, the topic is heavy as the main character dies and is shown dead, leaving his wife a widow with an unborn child. The text is ominous and sadly nostalgic, yet realistic, so teachers will want to help students process this sad reality of our history and modern day wars.
