Title: Through the eyes of an innocent child...
Review: I enjoyed how this book was written. With the chapters divided into months you are able to follow the life of Katy throughout this life changing year. I teach fourth grade and many of the girls in my class would enjoy this book. They love to read historical fiction. The character Katy spans from age six to nine years old. The students in my classroom are nine and ten year olds so they will be able to relate to the playfull and innocents of the character. Katy teaches us a life lesson about friendship. She befriends the boy that everyone sees as different, but she sees as a friend. She builds this bong with Jacob throughout the book. From a teacher standpoint I like this aspect of the book. I often see chidren stray away from children that are different or challenged. I have not read another book that teaches family and friend relationships through the eyes of a child. Katy teaches us the importance of these close relationships.
