review 1: Este libro nos muestra una mirada inocente de la primera guerra mundial, nos muestra el sufrimiento por el que. pasaron muchas familias y también las consecuencias que dejó la guerra en los soldados. No le di 5 estrellas, ya que a pesar de que me encantó la historia y estaba muy bien escrito, no logré conectar con algunos de los personajes, por lo que la mayor parte del tiempo me frustraba por algunas de las decisiones que tomaban.
review 2: This historical fiction novel for mid-grades by John Boyne ("The Boy in the Striped Pajamas")is about Georgie, who fights in WWI, but returns with shell shock, a little-understood ailment at that time. The book is written from the perspective of his son, Alfie, who is 9 after 4 years of god-forsaken war. To help his har
... moreried mum, Alfie shines shoes in a London railroad station when he finds out his father is in an English hospital 2 hours away! He concocts a plan to visit him, and then, to bust him out. Heartwarming, frightening, and beautifully written, the tearful ending is genius. Why do we do what we do? "He'd do it for the best reason in the world. For love." less
