My favorite book
One of the best book I have ever read in the past year has to be the Story of D-Day June 6,1944 by Bliven. It is a marvelous book about the invasion of Normandy. One of the major reasons I enjoy this book is how they planned, and how they trained and how they put it to good use. At night and in the morning of D-Day the paratroopers jumped by the thousands and their supplies were lost. Their supplies were in the hands of the enemy. Another reason I found the book to be so wonderful is the landing at Pointe de Hoc. The allied troops had to carry the rocket launchers up the cliffs even as the enemy cut their ropes , but they made it . Of course my favorite reason for loving this book is the vehicle called Ducks. This vehicle could move like a boat on water and drive like a vehicle called Ducks. This vehicle could move like a boat on water and drive like a vehicle on land . Most of the Ducks sank except for one and it was trying to stay afloat and a small ship came to the rescue and saved the crew of the Duck . To conclude ,the story of D-Day by Bliven was truly my favorite book.

About this book
This was a very good book. But it also bored me at times because the things in this book were the same things that I have read in my American History book.

The most important war of the US
This book is about the story of the American Revolution, in which Americans fought the the British. The story tells of important battles that happened in real life. The battles that were fought were hard and tough for the soldiers. The soldiers ran into many problems. Some soldiers were killed or even captured. Other problems, for example, were the ones found at Valley Forge. There, the soldiers had no food and barely any clothing. My favorite character in this book is George Washington. He was a great general that was very talented with great strategies on how to win battles.

I really like this book. It describes great battles of the past that were important to people who serve for the cause of freedom. My favorite parts of the book are the parts I read about how we would sneak up on the British without getting caught. For example, it describes how Washington crossed the Delaware River to capture Trenton without getting caught by the enemy. The part I did not like reading is when Benedict Arnold betrayed the Americans by letting the enemy know all the good strategies that the Americans knew.

I would recommend this book to other people who like to read about important battles. You can learn about history and the different strategies that officers would use to win the war. If you like Social Studies, I would recommend this book for you to read.

The best book!
I think that this book is awesome because I love to learn about the American revolution, and I think that the battles in the South were the most amazing of them all because they were not armies but frontiersman who were fighting and won most of the battles. This book helped me understand what the American army had to go through. It also helped me understand that the American army wasn't really a big army, until France helped the Americans. This book is awesome!

A 6th Grader Reviews "From Pearl Harbor to Okinawa"
I liked this book because it's the first book I ever read about the war between the U.S. and Japan. It had a lot of good information and the pictures at the beginning of the book captured the key points of the war. Even though it was factual, it was never boring.
