A few days ago my kid had a lot of questions about 9/11, so I thought watching a documentary would be a good learning tool. I WAS MISTAKEN. I was not prepared for the footage and we had to turn it off. Today they read this book and it is definitely the better choice. #booksky

My hand holding the book, I Survived The Attacks of September 11, 2001 By Lauren Tarshis.

The author’s reasoning for writing about 9/11 in this series.

“WHY I WROTE ABOUT SEPTEMBER 11

It was not part of my original plan to write about September 11, 2001, in the I Survived series. But over the past two years, I have received more than a thousand e-mails from kids asking me to write about this topic. At school visits, there are always kids who raise their hands and ask, "Will you be writing about 9/11?"”

I actually don’t believe in overconsumption when it comes to books. In an age where they are literally destroying books I think it’s so important to have physical media. Buy all the books. Build your library up. Buying books will never be a bad decision.
