War Brothers: The Graphic Novel by Sharon E. McKay
My rating: 3 of 5 stars
While this graphic novel reads like a memoir, it is based off interviews that the author completed for her book by the same title.
The child solider problem is real and Americans need to realize what's going on. So for that, I'm glad I read this book. It's graphic, but tweens and teens need to understand how child soldiers happen and that there are grey lines between and good and bad in the world. We all have a breaking point.
I could help but think of the Alex Award winning title A Long Way Gone: Memoirs of a Boy Soldier--the two books could be paired in a World History class very easily.
