Salt: A Story of Friendship in a Time of War by Helen Frost

4.0

The book is billed as written like poetry. While I did enjoy the book, there wasn't anything poetic about it, except that it was written in the shape of a poem. It sort of seems like a gimmick to me- whereas the writing was good enough to stand alone in a shorter book. Interesting coverage of the war of 1812 which was accessible to kids.
