Kirk made a comment on the poll: So, if you had to choose a favorite apocalyptic book, what would it be? (I know, I know, just one?)

Kirk gave to: Whoever You Are by Mem Fox	My rating:
There are lots of good children's books, but I totally buy into this one with its message that the human race is one. Somehow the message doesn't feel sappy. Took me a little while to appreciate the illustrations (we've read it about a hundred times ...more
