4.0 out of 5 stars My opinion on After the Dancing Days, September 16, 2003
A Kid's Review
This review is from: After the Dancing Days (Paperback)
After the Dancing Days is about a girl who is dealing with the death of her uncle,the war, and her father being away helping the doctors at war. When her father finally arrives, her life starts to change. She cannot stop thinking about all of the wounded soldiers. As the weeks go by she learns to manage her thoughts and keep up with her ever-changing life.

I loved After the dancing Days. It was very interesting to see a girl about my age going through so much and handling it so well. It is also very inspiring to me because of the fact that she is so strong spiritually and emotionally.

The war brought a great deal of depression to the family,not to mention the rest of the country. When everything starts to get worse,she loses a good friend who helped her through the whole time. I thought the book was really good and great for anyone who likes to read.

5.0 out of 5 stars After the Dancing Days By Margaret I. Rostkowski, March 24, 2003
By A Customer
This review is from: After the Dancing Days (Paperback)
After the Dancing Days is a heartwarming story that accurately depicts historical events. The author gives readers an accurate picture of what the war was like, how the soldiers felt, and what life was like after the war. In addition, all of the characters behaved true to the time period. The history of World War I and the years following the war is revealed through the eyes of young Annie, the main character. Annie is a very dynamic character who changes throughout the story. At the beginning of the book, she is portrayed as a typical young girl, enjoying child-like activities. Throughout the book, Annie matures and enjoys the company of a twenty year old soldier over the company of children her own age. This story was told in the first person enabling the reader to know how Annie felt and how she changed. After the Dancing Days is a great story for middle school or high school students learning about World War I.

5.0 out of 5 stars AwEsOmE!, May 10, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: After the Dancing Days (Paperback)
I absolutly loved this book. At first I didn't think I would like it but I was wrong. This book was easy to understand and write an oral report over. I disagree with anyone who says its too hard. I am only 16 and understood and went through exactly what Annie was feeling. I recommend this book to anyone who wants a better understanding of what war was like, in a teen's view.
