A review by rubygranger
Eleven by Tom Rogers

4.0

Whilst this book was certainly a light read in terms of the writing itself, the story was emotionally charged and filled with Alex's own suspense as he wonders whether his dad will come home. Rogers explores the permanency of 9/11 and how massive a calamity it was, but in a way that is easily accessible to kids (maybe 10+?). One thing I particularly loved was the kindness which arose from strangers after that morning.
