Elephant Run


This is another WWII book (LOL!! do you think they boys in my class enjoyed reading about WWII?). Nick Freestones apartment in London gets blown up during the war. To keep him safe his mother sends him to Burma to live with his father because she thinks he will be safer there. While he is there the Japanese invade Burma and capture him and his father. They are separated for about a year. The book deals alot with Nicks mission to free his father. It was a great book. It is another book that has a different look at WWII. Several boys in my class tried to read it but couldn't get interested in the first couple of chapters so they abandoned it. I wish they would have kept on because I know they would have loved it.
