I originally had to read this book as a summer assignment for a class, but once I opened it, I simply couldn't put it down. From the start, you're immersed in O'Brien's world. At the time, he's a young man with his whole life ahead of him, sent to fight in the war in Vietnam. Through each of his stories, you're able to paint a picture of everyone he knew, the ones they loved and the ones they lost. Perhaps one of the most accurate depictions of life as a war veteran and an eye-opening recollection on American values, 'The Things They Carried' will make you experience a wide range of emotions, all the while rejuvenating your inner sense of patriotism.
Just like the other great books in this series, Kid Activists reminds us that we don't have to be a somebody to make a difference in the world. This book contains stories of some important and influential activists when they were kids. You'll enjoy learning about the small differences they made as kids that later turned out to make a huge difference in their world. I like some of the other books in this series better than this one but that doesn't mean that this one is good too.
so much money!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
