I recently read a book called The Saturday Boy, It is about a boy called Derek who's father was called away to battle in Afghanistan. He gets pushed around by a bully called Budgie, and he loves cartoons. Derek writes back and forth to his dad and has a good father -son relationship. One day, however, Derek turns on the TV, which he is not allowed to, seeing a news channel that says his father's helicopter was shot down. His mom comes home, knees shaking, tears flowing, hearing the news that Derek's dad was shot down. In the end, they learn to cope with problems and live their life the way they were supposed to.
