Across Five Aprils Audiobook

" This young adult classic was very interesting. It was about the youngest son of Illinois farmers during the Civil War. What struck me most was how hard people can work and what hardships they can (or can't) endure if necessary. "

" You know, we don't think about the Civil War much anymore. This book allows you to relive it from the point of view of someone on the sidelines. The best part was the letter from the President. "

" I read this after it was assigned to my daugher in 8th grade. I loved how the book broke down the conflicts of the Civil War into easy concepts for students. I think it's a must-read for American history buffs. "

" The book takes place during the civil War but, is from the families point of veiw and not so much from the men in the war and the battles. It told of the families and some of thier strugles. "

" It was barely possible for me to understand most of what they were saying because of the way that she made the characters talk, and how she spelled it. It was rather hard for me to follow the book itself as well. "

" This book is proof that one should reread high school assignments. I really enjoyed reading this account of the Civil War, told through the Creighton family. A good book with great characters. "

" I'm not a history girl..... "

" Listened to it on my MP-3. Enjoyable but not a lot of action. "

" The best book written about those left behind in the time of war. Told through the eyes of a ten year old boy who watches his family torn apart and brought back together by the Civil War and his own courage in learning to read and write an who he writes too will thrill you. "

" BORING!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! We had to read this in class and it is the one of the worst book ever!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!NOBODY died, civil war maniacs. So, to sum it up, it is one o' the worst book EVER!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! "
