Loading... Under the Hawthorn Tree: Children of the Famineby Marita Conlon-McKenna
Read this many times when I was a kid. Such a captivating book. (  ) nicola26 | Mar 30, 2013 |  Interesting read and storyline. Enough character development to make the story come alive for children. Gives children and understanding of the famine, but at a level children can handle. Would recommend this book for intermediate grades, but also is interesting enough for junior high reluctant readers. This is the first in a trilogy. dmreilly | Jun 23, 2009 | no reviews | add a review
