I read this to the boys. It is now one of my all-time favorite read-alouds. Highly recommended and a good companion to the study of the World War I era.
BestBooks is a record of all of the books that I have read since November 2004, with brief descriptions and reviews.

I listened to this and I think it's one of the finest historical fiction books I've read. (P.S. Just finished Room yesterday. Wow. I loved it).
I listened to this too. Really enjoyed it.
Hi Julie,
I'm reading this book aloud to my children and we can't get enough of it!
I'm not nearly as fast of a reader as you are, but I appreciate your recommendations. Thank you for sharing!
