Five Stars in the Window (Grades 3-6) Growing up during World War II was frightening to those of us who were children at that time. We all knew there was a strong chance that the war would come to our own land. We imagined enemy soldiers invading our shores. It was a known fact that Nazi submarines were spotted from time to time, very near to our Atlantic coast.
