5.0 out of 5 stars What an amazing book!, July 7, 1999

This review is from: Sons of Liberty (Paperback)

As a middle school teacher, I am constantly searching for books like Sons of Liberty. Adele Griffin writes about themes that will grab a seventh grader and she does so with careful attention to each sentence. Not once does Ms. Griffin try to pull a weak sentence over her young audience's eyes.

For teachers interested in this book, Sons of Liberty would fit nicely into a psychology unit or into a unit dealing with the start of the American Revolution.

3.0 out of 5 stars Sons of Liberty, June 21, 2005

This review is from: Sons of Liberty (Paperback)

This book was okay. As an adult, I was able to grasp the meanings, but the author did not go very deep into the details of the story line. I constatly felt like I wanted more information, but the author was just skimming the surface. It also seemed like this book was a little longer than it needed to be. I am not sure that I would recomend it for my students.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Very Inspiring Book, December 17, 1999

Adele Griffin has a true gift. This novel just grabs you by the collar and pulls you in. Her dialogue is truly inspired. One of the best children's/young adult books I have read in a long time!
