Engrossed!
Engrossed is the only possible description for my boys when reading this book. The chapters are short enough to keep a reluctant reader going, the black & white illustrations add to the story. Myers' historic notes at the end add value to a well disguised history lesson. My boys are ages 13 and 12.

A Place Called Heatbreak
'A Place Called Heartbreak' is a fairly good book.I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to know about the Vietnam War. I gave the book three stars.

A Place Called Heatbreak,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: A Place Called Heartbreak: A Story of Vietnam (Stories of America) (Library Binding)
'A Place Called Heartbreak' is a fairly good book.I would recommend this book to anyone that wants to know about the Vietnam War. I gave the book three stars. My favorite part was when Fred Cherry was finally let out of prison. He was an airforce pilot for the USA. He was captured when his plane was shot down by a North Vietnamese soldier. While he was in prison he taught the other prisoners "tap." Soldiers had to learn a tap code to communicate with other prisoners in different cells. That was pretty cool. This book was okay. Try it.--Baseball Stud
