On p. 64 the author noted, “Sometime after speaking to Louie, Louise pulled out a set of cards on which she kept a list of Christmas card recipients. After Louie’s last visit home, she’d taken out one of the cards and, on it, jotted down the date and a few words about Louie’s departure. This day, she noted Louie’s phone call. These were the first two entries in what would become Louise’s war diary. Why do you think it was important to Louie’s mother to keep a war diary? What kinds of things do you think it contained after these entries?
