Smoke at the Pentagon: Poems to Remember:
"Thank you to the author for the digital ARC of this beautiful novel in verse.
This collection of poems is a story beginning with the attack at the Pentagon on 9/11 and ending seven years later at the Pentagon's Memorial. We meet Emily, age 13, who is " Read more of this review » |

"I read this book pretty much over the course of a single breath. It reminded me of the gripping book, I Never Saw Another Butterfly, that we read over and over again when we were young, children’s words and drawings from concentration camps. But this"

“Do you know the Ten Commandments?" Grandma Trudie asked me. I nodded my head. Of course I knew the commandments God gave the Israelites at Sinai. I knew them by heart and in order.
"What is commandment number six?"
"Thou shalt not kill," I answered proudly.
"Very good," Grandma Trudie said. "Then you will understand when I say that six million Jews were killed because the Nazis believed in their leader, Adolf Hitler, before anything else. When a human being is given the power to decide what is good and what is evil, the world is in chaos—crazy. Hitler said that certain people were not worthy of life, and his followers obeyed his orders without question. The Nazis showed us what kind of world we have when the Ten Commandments, God's laws, are disregarded.”

“We all do things we desperately wish we could undo. Those regrets just become part of who we are, along with everything else. To spend time trying to change that, well, it's like chasing clouds.”
