Attack on Pearl Harbor

I love reading about World War II. This is the first book I have read on Pearl Harbor. This book is a childrens/young adult book. I found the pictures fascinating. Some were actual pictures and others were exceptionally drawn.

Attack on Pearl Harbor has the view point of the Japanese and their planned attack. You also learn about some of the people that were there when the attack happened. I nice enjoyable short book.

Readers learn about the Pearl Harbor attack through the eyes of Hawaiian civilians, sailors, and Japanese soldiers. Very readable-not a dry recitation of facts.

This is the bible on the bombing of Pearl Harbor for Elementary School students. Loaded with primary resources and photographs, maps, and first hand accounts this book has it all without being too much for the Middle School student. The Pearl Harbor event is told in a narrative format creating a memorable story which is a helpful format for many students to remember. Every page has a large section dvoted to supportive illustrations or photographs to support the story. The resource also includes a Glossary,index, and a list of additional resources for students. Grades 6-8

Summary:
Tells the story of the attack on Pearl Harbor from the perspective of a boy who lives on the island, a seaman of the USS Oklahoma, and a Japanese submarine captain. The book is filled with fascinating information about the attack from both the Japanese and U.S. sides.
