Reviewed by Parent/Teacher

My 9 year old son really enjoyed this. The character Matt, shows such courage in this book.
Really shows how much harder life was in these times. We he finished reading it, we rented the movie from the library. The movie is a real tear jerker, but was wonderful! That was 2 years ago, and he still talks about it today. Highly recommend!!
