This book is based on the young children living through the Civil War in the North. It was very informative and quite an eye-opener. The book focused on both the children. In the North slavery was abolished. There is such a big difference between schools in the North and the South. At the end of the book is a glossary and internet sources and places to visit. The illustrations in the book were pictures. In the beginning of the book is where readers can find the photo credits. This is a good book to read to students however, I don't think I would have time to read it to my students.… (más)
