This is an outstanding book for all generations (our editor’s 87-year-old mother loved it, as did a 12-year-old nephew). He was ultimately successful in his attempts to keep the German army at bay at the Battle of Colmar Pocket, and became the most decorated hero of WW II. Narrated by Tom Perkins, this book takes a look at the life of a 17-year-old who was so determined to beat the Nazi regime, he forged his birth certificate to say he was 18 so he could enlist right away. Smith’s book is a must-read for elderly parents who served in World War II, or anyone who’s a history buff. Narrated by actress Reese Witherspoon, it features many of the characters from To Kill a Mockingbird, and casts an interesting light on this classic novel. The manuscript to Harper Lee’s novel wasn’t discovered until the end 2014, and it’s a wonderful companion to her classic To Kill a Mockingbird, a pivotal book of our parents’ (and our own) generation. Below we’ve listed some of our favorite titles for the elderly, all of which are easy to download to a desktop computer or tablet.
