Nancy P. (fabfoodie) reviewed on 6/9/2013 + 2 more book reviews

Although this book has a suggested age range of 9-12 years old, it's a wonderful read even for adults. The main character is 9-10 and her sister is 10-11 in this book, thus the suggested age range.

The author wrote this book as an adult and inserts some of her perspectives from an adult point of view. For me, as an adult who has been to Pearl Harbor several times and grown up near a military base in California, this was a very unique look at the lives of families living at Ford Island before and in the days right after the bombing. Very rare photographs are also included.

I would definitely recommend this to Pearl Harbor visitors and people interested in the personal accounts of life during WWII.
