The lyrical collage of men and war invites comparison with Gary Paulsen's Soldier's Heart (Booklist's Top of the List choice for 1998), and it holds its own. It is less graphic but equally moody and reflective. Because the narrator works in camp and away from the front lines, the violence is seen only at a distance: \"Down by the creek the wounded lie in rows \/ like pine logs at the mill in Silver Bluff\".... An evocative book, written with language so vibrant it begs to be read aloud.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eMay 15, 1999 Booklist, ALA\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Clarion Books","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44890196279525,"sku":"NP9780618311071","price":8.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/1842\/7735\/files\/9780618311071.jpg?v=1730232737","url":"https:\/\/k12savings.com\/es\/products\/moon-over-tennessee-a-boys-civil-war-journal-isbn-9780618311071","provider":"K12savings","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
