Yesturday, I spent the whole day at my mother's store to help her (why I wasn't able to go online yesturday) and I ended up reading the novel My Brother Sam is Dead again, and realized how horrible war was. The story is about a boy named Tim who is split inbetween the American Revolutionary War. His brother, Sam, believes that Americans should be free and goes off to war. His father, however, feels that what Sam is doing is foolish. For the father, along with the rest of the family, believes that they shouldn't go to war over simple taxes and disagrees with the war. Tim has to choose between his father and his brother who he idolizes. It's a pretty good book and short enough to finish in a day. It's pretty famous and also really cheap. My mother had gotten it for three dollars at the near by Barnes and Nobles (it was new). For those who have read it, please disscuss about how you felt about the book.
