Book Review – On the Horizon by Louis Lowry

On the Horizon is a new addition to the library and is a very good book for kids that want to learn about events during World War II. It describes the lives lost and the lives deeply affected by the bombing of Pearl Harbor and Hiroshima, Japan. It contains a bunch of poems in the form of a story showing the emotions of the people and the tragedy World War II brought to them. At the end it emphasizes the hope for a good future and shows how people come together through the bad times and they become closer together. If you are into reading books about World War II, I would suggest you read this book.
