It tells the truth about what happened without going into great detail. "But then on September 11, 2001 something so huge and horrible happened that the whole world shook." ... "Two airplanes crashed into the Twin Towers. CRASHED, CRASHED, CRASHED into these two strong buildings."As a parent this book will give you the goosebumps every time you read it, and you can't help but be patriotic and hopefully pass that on to your kids. |
