I learned so much about writing historical fiction from this talented author. The facts about the Berlin Brats are fascinating.

I agree with the author that young teens should be exposed to history in a way that speaks to them – and textbooks are not the answer. I am so happy Ms. Elliott has recognized and responded to this need. Thank you, Melissa, for introducing us to these books and to their author. My next stop is Amazon!

Yes–and I like that this is about a part of history I didn’t know about before, either!

You’re so welcome, Nancy. Your grandkids are so lucky to have a book-loving grandma!!

Also, it is always interesting to learn more about WWII–and about a writer’s process for investigating and creating.

I of course, will order her latest book to be sent to my grandkids, perhaps as a “basket stuffer” for Easter. As always, I am indebted to you for providing lists of books to keep my two hungry bibliophiles sated!
