Pax by Sara Pennypacker

3.0

---

Whoa, this book covers lots of heavy topics all together. The devastation and consequences of war, loss of a parent, animal abandonment and mistreatment, it’s a lot for a children’s book. It was well written and covered the topic of learning who you are and your beliefs, but it is very heavy.

There is the some Buddhism philosophy explained in the book so if that is something else that may bother you about your kids reading I would stay away from this one.
