description: CASUALTY OF WAR Tattnall and her cousin Obie have been best friends forever. But in the spring of 1944, Tattnall is going on twelve and eager to grow up, while Obie is fifteen and out as grown-up as he's going to get. Tattnall loves Obie, but why does she always have to be the one to take care of him? With the war in Europe on the minds of all the adults in her small southern town, Tattnall is waging her own war, between her need for independence and her responsibility for Obie. It's a war she has to win -- but at what terrible price will her victory come?
