![Jese Leos](https://classics.bccbooking.com/author/vincent-mitchell.jpg)
A poignant and unforgettable collection of letters, poems, and artwork from the children of soldiers serving in Iraq and Afghanistan.
In Off to War, the children of soldiers share their hopes, dreams, and fears as their parents deploy to war. Through their touching words and artwork, we hear the voices of children who are coping with the absence of a parent, dealing with the stress of war, and searching for meaning in a world that has been turned upside down.
