The range of reactions by the kids is amazing - from deeply visceral to highly philosophical. While not every letter is a gem, you will definitely see yourself in them and learn something about your own feelings toward terror and the people behind it. By helping these kids express themselves, the authors have lit another candle in a dark world.

After John and Steve made their presentation at a conference I attended, and after receiving a free copy, I purchased several more! I would recommend it for all ages.

I have read the whole book, it's awesome. I have to admit some of the letters aren't that great, but some are awesome. I attend the school of the people who have the letters in the book, and this is my last year here. I hope you all enjoy the book! ^_^

This is a very special, easy-to-read book that truly captures how teens are feeling about the events of Sept. 11th and beyond. Their words bring us hope, tears and laughs. I think the course that produced these letters must have been very therapeutic for its participants. I know that my sons (ages 13 and 10) really benefited from reading their "peers'" words and it has inspired them to write their own letters to terrorists. Bravo!

Mr. Shuchart was my teacher in the 8th grade (2 years ago) he was my favorite teacher. A great teacher, and person. i just got done talking to him and found out that he finished his book. and i havent read it yet but if it is anything close to his teachings, then it will be one heck of a book!!
