Good! submitted by susanlam on June 20, 2013, 8:20am A fun read, not overly dramatic or graphic, but also not too easy or toned-down. Not for younger kids so much, but should be a fun and educationally historical pick for tweens, teens, and even adults. The art style is consistent and nice to look at, and keeps the story interesting.
