COMMUNITY REVIEWS
rich history submitted by camelsamba on July 27, 2011, 9:57pm This book is rich with the history of feudal Japan, and the story has an interesting tension. However, the underlying concepts seem more appropriate for older teens (definitely not tweens) - I just think they'll understand the emotions better.
