Description
Discover how millions of Americans on the home front—from factory workers to farmers to kids collecting scrap metal—joined the fight to win World War II.
When we think of war, we often focus on the battlefields. But from 1941 to 1945, Americans at home did whatever they could to support the troops and defeat the Nazis. Four curious kids take us into factories, farms, and even kitchens to show what the fight on the home front looked like up close!
