Everyone knows the name of the person that took the life of the great Lincoln, but how much do we really know about John Wilkes Booth? This book opens the eyes of readers to the details that lead JWB to assasinate Lincoln. I believe it is important for our chisldren to understand how event and feelings can lead to such negative actions that can impact not just our lives in a particular moment, but also history. It will hopefully make them think twice before acting on some of the horrible thoughts provoked by current events and feelings in their lives.The book is an easy read with vocabulary that will appeal to everyone, from teens to history buffs.
