The Hunger Games author, Suzanne Collins, will have a new book being released in 2013. The book, Year of the Jungle, will be geared to children ages 4 and up and is based on Suzanne Collins' childhood when her dad was away at war in Vietnam. I think it's a great concept and pretty poignant this day in age when so many kids have been separated from their parents by conflicts in the Middle East.
