It's Memorial Day in the US, so let's share books that take place during these two wars for #middlegrademonday !

The tagged book follows five kids from different countries who represent various elements of WW1. Their lives intersect in creative ways, each displaying courage in their own way. Engaging characters drive the story, but kids will also learn a lot about WW1 along the way- exactly what I expect from historical fiction!

Setting: WW 1, 5 different countries. The 5 MCs, in their early teens from 5 different backgrounds and nations, portray the terror, the violence, the hunger, and the dispirit of battle. The most they can hope for is to help others hang on to hope. But no matter who you are or where you‘re from - war is good for no one😓

This WWI novel is bursting with coincidences. Even in the chaos of war, the five protagonists and their families keep running into each other. Hearts change miraculously and lucky escapes are plentiful

#currentlyreading (listening) to Lines of Courage set in WWI and just finished Jubilee by Margaret Walker set in The Civil War, so lots of historical fiction! Both are good reads!
