This sounds like a great book, we love history!
This is a period in history I want to learn more about and this sounds exciting to read.
cool
What an important subject to present to our children in this format. It will grab their attention and hopefully help them realize just how horrific this period was.
It looks like a good read.
This book sounds really good. I think my niece will enjoy it too.
