It is a nice book, I enjoy it
Yellow Star
By Jennifer Roy
This book is a must-read for people who love history and learning about the Holocaust and World War II. I've read Yellow Star three times and the book becomes even better each time I read it! The book talks about the Holocaust in a more meaningful way by telling a story about a true Holocaust survivor instead of stating endless amounts of facts and statistics.This book is a must-read!
The Circuit
By Francisco Jiménez
PantherTeacher
The Circuit by Francisco Jimenez is one of the most inspiring books that I have ever read about the life of an immigrant family and their struggle to make a better life for themselves. The story begins when the family catches a train headed for La Frontera. They cross the border in California to find work and a better life. When they arrive they realize that things in the U.S. aren’t as easy as they’d imagined. Eventually the family finds work and Panchito, the main character, is allowed to go to school for the first time. At school Panchito is challenged because he is unable to speak English. This makes it difficult for him to understand his teacher and classmates. Things get better for him when he begins to make a few friends. One of my favorite quotes from the Circuit is when the family is praying for their littlest member to survive a terrible sickness and Mama says, “The doctor said it would take a miracle for him to live. I didn’t want to believe him, but he was right. It took a miracle.” I highly recommend this book to anyone who is interested in stories about adventure and adversity. The Jimenez family find that they can make it through some of the most difficult times if they stick together and love one another. I give this book 5 out of 5 stars!! What makes it even better is that it is the first book in a wonderful trilogy.
World War II Book 1: The Right Fight
By Chris Lynch
Braden
This is a book I would recommend to anyone. This book is about World War II and how a minor league baseball player enrolls in the army. The reason I would recommend this book to anyone is it is very interesting to learn about the war while following a adventure. One good part about this book is that is shows letters that him and his wife send back and fourth. All in all, this is a very good book that everyone in my opinion should read.
