{"product_id":"shattered-jennifer-armstrong-9780440237655","title":"Shattered: Stories of Children and War","description":"As bullets ring and bombs are dropped, children watch--mostly from the sidelines, but occasionally in the direct line of fire. Unaware of the political issues or power struggles behind the battle, all they know are the human, emotional consequences of this thing called war. This collection examines all of war's implications for young people--from those caught in the line of fire to the children of the veterans of wars long past. \u003cp\u003e\u003c\/p\u003eCritically acclaimed author Jennifer Armstrong brings together 12 powerful voices in young people's literature to explore the realities of war from a child's perspective. The settings vary widely--the Soviet invasion of Afghanistan, an attempted coup in Venezuela, the American Civil War, crisis in the Middle East--but the effects are largely the same. In war, no life is ever left untouched. In war, lives are shattered.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jennifer Armstrong\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0440237653\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780440237655\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Rh Childrens Books\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 11\/11\/2003\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 166\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.20lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 6.94h x 4.20w x 0.51d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAccelerated Reader:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReading Level:\u003c\/b\u003e 5.2\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePoint Value:\u003c\/b\u003e 6\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eInterest Level:\u003c\/b\u003e Upper Grade\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eQuiz #\/Name: \u003c\/b\u003e56465 \/ Shattered: Stories of Children and War\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eReview Citation(s): \u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePW Notes and Reprints\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/05\/2004 pg. 64\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eKliatt\u003c\/i\u003e 05\/01\/2004 pg. 31\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003ePublishers Weekly\u003c\/i\u003e 01\/05\/2004\u003cbr\u003e\u003ci\u003eSchool Library Journal\u003c\/i\u003e 03\/01\/2005 pg. 69","brand":"Jennifer Armstrong","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":46747582660863,"sku":"9780440237655","price":6.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_3f654d69-1ab9-4669-a9f2-7313b8faf11c.jpg?v=1743584166","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/shattered-jennifer-armstrong-9780440237655","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
