Not what I expected

Contains spoilers, click to show

This appears to be a children's book and I suppose it approached the subject of Death rather delicately but it was really depressing. I must say that I didn't care for the story much even tho this is all to real for alot of people , I can't see how this would help someone.

Chris Hooker (419 KP) rated Out of War: True Stories from the Frontlines of the Children's Movement for Peace in Colombia in Books

[Out of War] by [Sara Cameron] is the story of the Children's Movement for Peace in Columbia. It is a non fiction book written for lower readers. The high interest of the topic, especially to many ELL students, will be a help but the way the stories are told is dull and could be written better.

Whenever I am having a bad day or feeling down I re read this children's book. Love the storyline how an orphaned girl is sent to India to live with her Uncle and she along with a boy she befriends over there come across a garden which has been locked for years and bring it back to life.
