Books About War For Children

November 7, 2020 by Crystal McClean

Books about war for children at Castle View Academy

War.  It’s by far not my favourite topic.  At least from the standpoint of the warriors.  I don’t enjoy bloodshed and violence.  And the people making the decisions to go to war aren’t the ones fighting it.  However, learning about past conflicts can help our children learn about history and how to avoid and prevent future disasters.  Today’s book selection features books about war for children.

    We loved the Christmas Truce! It’s so sad to think that these men connected on such a level and then were forced to fight against one another again.
