Juvenile Literature. Historical Fiction. Juvenile Fiction. HTML:“The Dump” is what Doug Swieteck calls his new home in upstate New York. He lands there in the summer of 1968, when the Apollo space missions are under way, Joe Pepitone is slugging for the New York Yankees, and the Vietnam War is raging. At home he lives with a father who has lost his way and a brother accused of robbery. And Doug’s oldest brother is returning from Vietnam. Who knows what wounds his missions have given him?<br /> <br /> But Doug has his own mission, too, and it begins when he first sees the plates of John James Audubon’s Birds of America at the local library. His mission will lead him to Lil Spicer, who shows him how to drink a really cold Coke, to Mrs. Windermere, who drags him to a theater opening, and to the customers of his Saturday grocery deliveries, who together will open a world as strange to him as the lunar landscape.<br /> <br /> Swieteck, who first appeared in Gary D. Schmidt’s Newbery Honor book <i>The Wednesday Wars</i>, will discover the transforming power of art over disaster in a story about creativity and loss, love and recovery, and survival.
