One day, the soldier goes into the other one's hole and realizes that that soldier has been told lies. He longs to end the war with the other soldier because they both have families and are human. Opinion: This book was pretty sweet. It teaches a good lesson about war but can also be used on a smaller scale just about getting along with people in the classroom. The illustrations are cool and I'm sure kids would love this book. no reviews | add a review

As a book that addresses a complex subject in a simple way, I would give it four stars, but I didn't like the ending. It was abrupt and unsatisfying. And I fear that because this is a picture book, it may not reach the older kids (I'd say at least 4th grade and up) who would get it. ( )
