Praise for Other books in the Series: World War II From the Rise of the Nazi Party to the Dropping of the Atomic Bomb by Diane C. Taylor The Children' s War Blog . . . . Why is World War II: From the Rise of the Nazi Party to the Dropping of the Atomic Bomb such a stand out book for teaching upper middle grade and high school students about WWII? Like all the books in the Inquire & Investigate series, this is an interactive text that gives enough information about each topic, designed to get kids to explore more in depth and to help them understand the causes, the aftermath, and consequences of a war of global magnitude. . . Praise for Other books in the Series: The Vietnam War by Barbara Diggs School Library Connections The author does not shy from describing the deception and dishonesty prevalent among these central players, and the key events of the war are explained, complete with their importance. The highlight of the book is its interactive aspect. Numerous sidebars ask students to consider critical questions, Vocab Lab invites readers to compile and practice vocabulary, and codes can be scanned to lead students to additional information such as Ho' s Declaration of Independence, propaganda cartoons, and relevant speeches. Bibliography. Glossary. Recommended School Library Journal A well-organized and succinct work to accompany U. S. history units. The book follows the trajectory of the Vietnam War and includes vocabulary labs at the end of each chapter, project ideas (writing a song or poem about a current political/social concern), investigative questions and points to ponder or debate. The writing is concise with relevant sources and differing points of view. Tech enthusiasts will like the inclusion of QR codes with primary source videos and documents. VERDICT: This text could be used as a supplemental study guide for dedicated students. Praise for Other books in the Series: The Holocaust: Racism and Genocide in World War II by Carla Mooney Skipping Stones 2018 Honor Award
