Towers Falling by Jewell Parker Rhodes
5.0

This is a heartfelt story of a girl in New York whose parents are struggling to survive. She makes friends at her new school and soon begins to learn about 9/11--the day the towers fell. Rhodes once again brings history alive for young people in a gentle and age-appropriate way. She is a pro at connecting the personal and historical.
