The Fighting Ground

Reader reviewed by Roxy (mrs.siorekes class)

this book is about a 13 year old boy who goes to war.he is captured by the Hessians who speak no english.I thought this book wouldn't be one of my favorites,and it wasn't,But it taught me about war,and life back in 1778.I wouldn't recomend this book to some of my closest friends,but if you like war,this is a good book to choose.

I didn't excatly enjoy reading this book but i wouldn't say it is horrible. Lets just say that Jonathan ,a 13year old boy, wanted to go to war. So one day he had the chance and he took it . He was fighting the Hessians. He took the chance of not listening to his parnets. So he went off to war. Im not going to give it all away because you have yo read the book.

This book was okay. It was about a boy who went to war because he thought it would be cool and because his dad and his brother went. But when he finds out what war is about he was glad to be back home.
