Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Our government ordered women and children to get out -- NOW! Papa, Onkel Max, and Onkel Richard had to stay to fight the Russians. We made plans. The next morning, we loaded the wagon with hay and bags for four aunts, six cousins, and Oma. Oma and Mama climbed inside. Tante Ida clucked to her horses. The wagon lurched forward. The rest of us pulled scarves over our frozen noses and trudged through the snow beside the wagon. The road was cramped with wagons full of people, hand-pulled carts, and even bicycles. The wind pinched every nose and pierced every eye. We walked for about four weeks before we came to Stolp. Mama, Eva, and I took any train we could. Oma and the others kept the wagon. They'd keep going west on the icy roads, looking for homes in the bombed-out towns. Nobody said it. But we knew we might never see one another again. Book jacket.
Download or read book Shattered written by Jennifer Armstrong and published by Laurel Leaf. This book was released on 2007-12-18 with total page 178 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As bullets ring and bombs are dropped, children watch—mostly 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. This collection examines all of war’s implications for young people—from those caught in the line of fire to the children of the veterans of wars long past. Critically acclaimed author Jennifer Armstrong brings together 12 powerful voices in young people's literature to explore the realities of war from a child's perspective. The settings vary widely—the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, an attempted coup in Venezuela, the American Civil War, crisis in the Middle East—but the effects are largely the same. In war, no life is ever left untouched. In war, lives are shattered.
