deos anyone know the author Patricia Hermes?

Question

Brothers at War By: Patricia Hermes?

So, here's the deal,

my little brother was assigned this last minute of the last week of the school year book report. (dumb i know) He was assigned the book called 'Brothers at War' and he thought he could find it in our house, but we can't for some reason, and so when he and my parents checked the library today they said there isn't such a book in our county even! the report is due monday. his teacher is lame and deosn't understand why this is hard for him, and she expects him to do the report and write about it and have it on her desk by monday.

so my question is, deos anyone know a website you could like read the story online. or find script notes on it? I know it's kinda cheating ,but this is the the easiest thing we could do without someone getting injurned somehow.
if you read this whole dilemma, i thank your good choice in people.

so if anyone can help, please and thank you.
and i'm not using wikipedia. it's unreliable.

Answer 1

Checked the web. There are no ebooks or notes available for this title. Your best bet is to call Barnes and Noble and Borders in your area first thing in the morning and ask them if they have it in stock and if so have them hold it for you.
My daughter used to always say that the teacher just assigned huge projects at the last minute too. That translates to I waited until the last minute and now I'm in trouble. If you really think he was assigned this project on Friday and it is due on Monday, I'd talk to the principal about it. I have a feeling the teacher will have a diferent story though.

Hope this helps,
Channa

Answer 2

Sophie, I think that would not be fair to the little boy and the teacher.
Why not just be frank and courageous enough and write a note for the boy to take to his lame teacher that the book is unavailable in the whole county! The library has no copy and the deadline is too close for the boy to finish the assignment. I've got a hunch, she'll understand and either extend the deadline or offer the boy her own copy to read and make the report.
That is not wayward piece of advice. I could show you the web links but finally, they may not be helpful in the learning process. I am a teacher myself and I would feel cheated if my student simply copied some ideas from some website!!

Good luck.

Answer 3

First, the title is not Brothers at War. The correct title is, The Brothers' War. The author was Patricia Hermes.

Could it be that you gave the librarian the wrong title?
