From Baghdad With Love: A Marine, the War and a Dog Named Lava



by Jay Kopleman and Melinda Roth

This book is not something that I normally would pick for myself but it was a Christmas gift from my husband. I should have known he would pick a good book for me; he has great taste! This is the true story of a Marine in Iraq who found a tiny defenseless puppy amid all the ugliness of war and became determined to save its life. Tender and beautiful but not sappy, Kopleman also offers honest insight into what it is like to be a Marine in Iraq.
