Content: G
BUYING ADVISORY: EL (K-3) - ADVISABLE
AUDIENCE APPEAL: AVERAGE
War has many faces and shapes but only leads to one outcome.
Profound in its simplicity, Letria breaks down war into seventeen sentences punctuated by shadowed illustrations. The pains of war are felt on every page. This isn’t a book that kids are likely to pick up themselves, but it can be a powerful teaching aide.
