Reading and Remembering

I have thoroughly enjoyed reading these two books, quite different perspectives on World War II. Both of these books were recommended to me by my sister. She actually just listed a third book yesterday, HERE, that I'm sure is just as teaching.

This book was absolutely delightful, and although just as serious, offers a more lighter view of the war. How excited I was, then, to find a scholarship related to the holocaust. You can find it in the contests for kids link at the top right. Tanner's going to try. Go ahead, encourage somebody else to remember what happened.
