This book is too graphic for children. Shows war, bombings, people with arrows through them, dead people, blood, etc. Not sure how this is a children’s book. The book just ends, with no conclusion or explanation or lesson learned.

This book is really choppy in its writing style. I find it hard to follow and it is definitely not for a younger child. The parallels between space travel tied back to what is happening on earth is a tough connection to make...Should have returned it!
