What I love the most is that this book is about the goodness of the human spirit and how we come together after a tragedy.<br /><br />Alison: The book handled the sensitivity of 9/11 and explaining a new culture so well.<br /><br />BookQuoter: I've heard about this book a while ago but didn't get a chance to read it until now because it is on the Bluestem Award list for Grades 3-5 in IL. It's definitely worth reading!Rummanah Aasihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12119402559076729383noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-16549154728081186142011-06-01T22:59:26.954-05:002011-06-01T22:59:26.954-05:00Great book to review dealing with such a very sens...Great book to review dealing with such a very sensitive issue.
