A massively important book. Not just for children, but for people who were children when these attacks happened.
I was 6 when this happened and to this day I still feel like I’m learning more about it. And to see it from the perspective of someone who was “there” is chilling and emotional. To feel how they felt realizing someone wasn’t coming back or to not know someone’s fate.
I think this book is powerful in word format but as a graphic novel it moves mountains.
I would recommend parents read this along with their children to help them understand and process what truly happened.
