COMMUNITY REVIEWS
From 10 and 7 year olds submitted by robinfowler on August 17, 2022, 9:59pm This book is made to be easy to read but is about history and war so I don't know. It does have some interesting stuff like there are code talkers who are really just speaking another language not German or English.
