Summaries and Reviews
Summary
A collection of stories, written by twelve noted young adult authors, examines all of war's implications for young people--from those caught in the line of fire to the children of veterans of wars long past.
(view table of contents)Amazon.com description: Product Description: As bullets ring out and bombs are dropped, children watchâmostly from the sidelines, but occasionally in the direct line of fire. Unaware of the political issues
or power struggles behind the battle, all they know are the human, emotional consequences of this thing called war.
Critically acclaimed author Jennifer Armstrong brings together 12 powerful voices in young peopleâs literature to explore the realities of war from a childâs perspective. The settings vary widelyâthe Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, an attempted coup in Venezuela, the American Civil War, crises in the Middle Eastâbut the effects are largely the same. In war, no life is left untouched. In war, lives are shattered.
