I was absolutely blown away by this when I was a kid. It made me cry. It was just as good the second time around, now that I've grown up somewhat. ...more

Just finished this as a read aloud with my kids. My voice was cracking in the final pages. Such a powerful book, should be required reading for all Americans.
