The violence in this book makes me question my decision to stop prereading books for my kids. It also has me wondering (again) about how to inform my children about the world without leaving them feeling like everything is awful and hopeless because humans suck. I've read that one way to help kids make sense of current events is by teaching the context, but the context itself is pretty awful and often just reinforces the "humans suck" message.
