Just thinking about this actually happening freaks me out. Can you imagine? I can’t imagine my ten-year-old having to take care of his siblings and fight for their survival. Crazy. I liked this book. It is an interesting and different concept, which is good, and it definitely gets your attention. I felt so bad for these children and wished I could help them. Mr. Cramer’s character development is really good, and I felt like these kids lived in my neighborhood, like I have always known them. I can’t imagine having to bury my friends like they did. They took it surprisingly well and did a pretty good job of keeping life as normal as possible. I liked how each of the kids kind of ended up with a specialty, just like adults do. The book is well written and flows well. The story is captivating and draws you in. It’s a fast, easy read.
Thank you Monica!
