Reader Questions
• Why does the Red Cross need lots of oatmeal and sugar? Why are these items important to Molly’s mother?
• During World War II, certain goods, like sugar and gasoline, were scarce—so they were rationed, with limited amounts available to each household. Have you ever experienced a shortage of goods? Can you think of common items that have become scarce in the recent past?
• As Molly and Emily bike to the hospital, Molly sees a poster with the Home Front Pledge, which says: “I pay legal prices and accept no rationed goods without giving up ration stamps.” What does this pledge mean, and why is it important?
• What is a Black Market? Why are Molly and Emily talking about it?
• Molly and Emily volunteer after school at a convalescent hospital. What is their volunteer job? Why are the patients pleased to see them?
