I happened upon The Veterans Day Visitor while looking for children's stories about Veterans Day, and realizing that it was the third and final book in co-authors Peter Catalanotto and Pamela Schembri's 2nd Grade Friends series, decided to read the first two (The Secret Lunch Special and No More Pumpkins) first. I found the story here, which is inspired by Schembri's own father, quite engaging, and think beginning chapter-book readers will as well. The story could be used to start a classroom discussion about veterans, but also about narcolepsy. The afterword gives more information about Schembri's father, who was quite active in veteran affairs, and who campaigned for the Purple Heart stamp that was eventually produced by the US Postal Service. Recommended to anyone who read and enjoyed the first two entries in this series, and to beginning chapter-book readers looking for stories about veterans and/or Veterans Day. ( )
