READ THE BOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOK!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!,
A Kid's Review
This review is from: Willie McLean and the Civil War Surrender (On My Own History) (Paperback)
In Appomattox court house Virginia on April 18,1865 BOOM! A boy named Willie and his sister Lula and their mama and papa Meclean live in Virginia. Willie was only 11 and his sister was 7 when guns fired! Before, they had lived somewhere else but if you want to know what happened READ THE BOOK! Lula is very shy and scared of some things. Willie is not scared of anything at all.
Do you really want to know why I gave this book five stars ? I gave this book five stars because it was just the right thing I wanted to hear about . It was very exciting it was not a bad or scary story only at the . . . Woops! I don't want to give away a really good book would I?
