School Library Journal - 04/20/2013 Gr 5–8—This title does an excellent job of presenting World War II in a nutshell. The text is divided into five chapters: "The Path to War," "Europe & the Atlantic War," the Pacific theater, Africa & the Middle East, and the end of the war. Each section is divided into several two-page topics. The title page of each chapter asks three questions that are answered in the text. It is followed by a two-page time line with boxed information and vintage photos (some are color enhanced). Single images fill other spreads. The format is somewhat busy with randomly spaced photos, paragraphs, charts, graphs, cutaways, and maps. A colored band down the outer right margin of some pages features a "more here" reference that lists subjects to research, further reading, TV and movies, historical sites, activities, and a mini glossary. A special code permits readers to log on to a website that has several interactive buttons with topics such as "Child Heroes," "On the Front Lines," "Animal Heroes," "Secrets and Spies," "Heroes at Home," and "Everyday Heroes and Heroines." Even with the plethora of titles on the subject, this selection is a first purchase.—Eldon Younce, Anthony Public Library, KS - Copyright 2013 Publishers Weekly, Library Journal and/or School Library Journal used with permission.
