A review by ljrinaldi
Broken Strings by Eric Walters, Kathy Kacer

4.0

What does Fiddler on the Roof, the holocaust and the aftermath of 9/11 all have in common? They are all about discrimination, be it Jews, or Muslims, or what?

And the author wove these all together to tell the story that seemingly didn't have a connection.

Oh, and a little romance thrown in besides.

The intertwining of these elements worked well, though they were telegraphed, a bit, because it was the only logical outcome. But, there were other surprises, that I didn't see coming.

Great book for middle grade readers to learn a little history, and compassion.

Thanks to Netgalley for making this book available for an honest review.
