Title:  The Art of Keeping Cool
Author:  Janet Taylor Lisle
Reviewer:   Mike M. '10

The Art of Keeping Cool by Janet Taylor Lisle is about a boy named Robert who lives in Newport, Rhode Island, a navy town, during WWII.   Robert’s dad flies for the RAF.   There is a man who lives in town who is a German named Able Hoffman.  Able was forced to come to America because he was not a Nazi. The same discrimination seems to be happening in RI.        
 
I recommend this book to anyone who likes WWII or suspense.  The description of the war activity is very interesting.
