I think topics like this are incredibly important to talk about, especially these days. But there are pages in this book that are just inaccurate. And it's disappointing because kids need to learn history, and they WANT to learn history. I know in some books like this information is summarized to be more digestible for younger audiences, but that didn't seem the case in this book. I'm sure some might argue they're simply "technicalities", but in an age of massive misinformation, I think it's important to be very accurate and mindful of our words.
I will say, the book flows nice, I think kids would enjoy the length and the images. But if you're going to do a report on the topic, I'd recommend gathering multiple sources. Think of this book as an interesting starting off point.
