Wish that I could give it more than 5 stars…..I’m going to start lobbying for high schools to include this book in required reading. It’s the perfect book for the reluctant reader and I could see boys in middle school and high school lining up to read this book. (Girls will also love it!) As a retired librarian, this book contains the “hook” necessary to engage readers of all ages! Kudos to Laura Hillenbrand and love and sincere thanks to Louie Zamperini for his unbelievable life and his UNBROKEN spirit and love for his country. God bless America!
