Kids Books - Historical

I loved this book. If you read it you'll know why.

The book I read was Shadow on the Mountain by Margi Preus. The book is about the adventures of a true wartime spy. The main character is a boy named Espen who lived in Norway at the time of Nazi Germany. He hated the Nazis and decided to join the resistance. The resistance is a group of people who worked against Germany. He delivers illegal newspapers, radios, ration stamps, and many other illegal things. Things get even more dangerous throughout the book as the Nazis get stricter. I loved this book, it is a action packed and fun read. I could not put the book down because of the suspense and intense moments. It is written very well and is perfect for my age readers. There was very good detail and dialogue all throughout the book. Sadly this book is realistic fiction. All of this book could happen during this time in history. I'm sure there is many people who had to go through this during that time. Almost anyone can read this book, kid or adult it doesn't matter. But I would recommend this book to people who love intense and action packed books because that is what this book is all about. An internal conflict happens when Espen had to leave his family and friends for Sweden. He had to do this because he had so much information about the Nazis he couldn't stay in the area anymore. He was very sad when he had to leave them. An external conflict happened all throughout the book. It was always cold and snowy in Norway which made transportation very hard. Which that was what Espen always did. He delivered illegal newspapers and radio, etc. Overall this book was amazing and I'm very excited for my next Rebecca Caudill book!

This book is absolutely amazing, Anastasia: The Last Grand Duchess was a book about a girl and her family's fortune and the happenings with her father being tsar. I highly suggest it for those of you that love to read about history, it's also a good insight on how World war I started.

One day two girls named Malatta and Terrezi were planning their birthday parties because their birthdays were a month apart so they went down stairs to ask Malattas mama if the could have a real cake with real sugar her mother said "Malatta we don't have enough sugar to make you and terrezi a birthday cake we will try to make or get one but sugar is to much money and buying a birthday cake will waste me and papas money but we will try" after malatta heard that she and terrezi went back up stairs to make more plas for their birthday party.

I like it because when Rosa Parks created the boycott for the bus Martin joined in. The black people walked for 381 days. They walked for longer than a year! Finally they walked so long that the white people said that black people could sit anywhere they wanted on the bus

This book is a great way for kids who don't really like history books but like dogs to read a history book. Real drawings from the Lewis and Clark Journal included. This is a really cool book. Boulder, you should read this, knowing you I'm pretty sure you'll like it. ;)

This is an amazing book series about a family in 1870. You have to read it it is so good. Also, watch the Tv series too.

The story focuses on "Little Man", which is the paperboy. He throws the meanest fast ball in Memphis during 1959. Unfortunately, he had problems speaking. Words come out of his mouth with sounds like s-s-s-s, or tu-tu-tu. He was bullied by his classmates, and type down his stories using an old type writer of his dad, and shared his own feelings with the audience. He took over his friend's job, and hoped that he can get better at speaking because he was required to speak to adults during the newspapers are handed out. One part that I was really heart broken is that the pain of not being able to do what others do, for example, when your friends all get to play at an amusement park, while your mom forbidden you to. That's what Little Man feels. Just it's much deeper, much painful that just not going to the amusement park. Little Man had try all techniques pushing him to speak, and this is painful for a reader to read. I don't really appreciate how people beside him treated him, sometimes they are just too cruel, and will harm Little Man from deep down inside. If I was Little Man's friend or neighbor, I will be willing to help him learn to talk, or even help him with communicating with others.
