Book Review

The book is about a young boy who is named Ishmael Beah, he goes to war and faces many problems as time passes, like when his parents die, and why he goes to war. I think the authors purpose for writing the book is to be ready for anything and to know what to do if anything were to happen, and what to prevent. No, the book isn't relateable to someone my age that i know. None of my friends have been at war. I've read many other books like To Kill a Mockingbird, and it also has like fighting in it and the book i read has fighting/violence. I think the author of the book is a very good writer from the way he explains things in the book. This book is useful because you never know what will happen.
