Across Five Aprils by Irene Hunt
3.0
All anybody could talk about during the preteen years of young Jethro was war. The talk of war would always just roll right off of everyone's tongue. Even if nobody wanted to talk about that subject it would just pop right out of their mouth like a flower popping out of the ground. This was the Civil war.
This book, Across Five Aprils, is about about a young boy named Jethro and his family during the time leading up to and during the Civil War. Across Five Aprils is not all about the war but it also tells the acounts of a family that stays at home during the war.
I would recommend this book to people who are bored and would just like to pick up a book and read, students who have to read a book about the Civil War to get information, or to people who like both history and reading. Over all Across Five Aprils is a good written book by Irene Hunt that would be placed in the category of historical fiction.
