Exciting, thrilling, and engaging.

Review by Hudson

This book will tell readers about the Hannukah story from 2 children's point of view. The best part of this book is that it is a graphic novel so you can see what is in the author's mind. The illustrations were very colorful and kept me reading.

Friendship forever!

The book was very good! About an unlikely friendship between a Roman kid and a Jewish kid during the revolution.

Very Brave Hero

Review by HungryDinosaur13

The hero of the story was very brave and he had a friend who was of a different culture which was like who I am. They did something very dangerous but were able to beat the opposing army.

An Average Book

Review by Eliasaurus13

The book was very interesting but I still thought that it had plenty of room to improve. I could identify with the kid wanting to fight against the whole army, but it did not seem realistic.,k
