Hello to whoever is reading this. This book is amazing and I really enjoyed it. It was action-packed, emotional and I really felt like I was in those times. I hope whoever reads this will read this book. And all of her books. Have a great dayyyyyyyyyyyy!

Good job. I want you to try the series. The I Survived books are my favorite series out of all the series I've read. I love how it makes me feel better, like I can overcome challenges I couldn't have other times I tried. But the best of all is that your characters never give up, it makes me not want to give up.

I read this with one of my middle school English students in Italy, who had read a similar book about the French Revolution and wanted more. The story is crafted superbly to teach history by bringing the reader back in time to live the historical moment in all 5 senses. Both a history lesson and and English lesson, with many rich vocabulary words and cultural tidbits. We'll be reading others in this series and the plus is that these books are also available through Amazon in Europe.

My grandson loves, loves, loves this book series. Not only do they distract him from constant video gaming, but he maintains his reading skills and is introduced to real historical facts ... win-win-win!

I'm from Italy and I'm twelve years old. My english teacher told me to read this book and it was just wonderful. I read this book a few times and I thought it was more interesting each time. I like history at school but this book teaches history in a more interesting way. It is more a travel machine than a book because it brings you in the story. I even learned about the famous Yankee Doodle Dandy so I close thanking the author with a line from the song: Keep it up!

My boys love the book, they have been reading it for couple of times. Looking forward for the new books.

My son is interested in history and he liked the book very much!!
