Most Recently Read Book:
The Journal of Patrick Seamus Flaherty
By Ellen Emerson White
I bought this book at a book fair because I will have a student this year who is really into "strategy and tactics" which is about war and decisions people make in wars. This book is about a soldier in Vietnam, which I thought was interesting because my dad fought in Vietnam. I know it is such a controversial war and I have heard stories but it was neat to read from the perspective of a soldier in the middle of one of the main battles of the Vietnam War. I had never read books from the My Name is America/Dear America series but I really like the first person perspective. I think it would be neat to read other books like this about other time periods. I think it is a great way for kids to really learn about history. The books are written by various well-known authors. Very cool.
