The Attack on Pearl Harbor an Interactive History

The reader can choose their own adventure as they learn about the attack on Pearl Harbor. Students can take on the role of a Japanese pilot, an American navy sailor stationed at Pearl Harbor, or an American nurse. This book contains a few black and white photographs that help to add a realistic feel as you picture yourself in the attack.
As the reader makes decisions, they will gain a sense of what the attack was really like on a personal level. The last several pages contain a time line, other perspectives, Internet sites, and a glossary. This book could be a good pick to read aloud in the classroom, or a good title to suggest to history buffs or reluctant readers.
