Battlefield

by Alan Tucker

This is a true story and one of the best you will read -it’s about a father and son. The dad tries to teach the son how to fire a gun. As you start reading it you will really get into the story. Alan Tucker has written a great war story for boys. When the enemy charges the boy is not scared. I think this story is about not getting scared about anything.

When dad was teaching his son how shoot he heard something in the bushes. The dad told him to stay low but when the son faced the gun toward the bushes they heard laughing and they knew that it was the son’s friend. So I think this story has humour and a good message for the reader.
