Soldier's Heart

Do you like books about the Civil War? If you do then Soldier's Heart is the book for you! Gary Paulsen has did it once again he has put pure genius into a book you just got to wonder how he does it.

Soldier's Heart takes place during the Civil War and is about a boy who lies about his age to serve in war. As we all know fighting in war is already dangerous enough for a full grown adult, so how is war going to be for a 14 year old. Will he even make it past his first battle or will he die a terrible death?

What I like is how Gary Paulsen makes it seem like it all really did happen. He makes it seem so realistic like that you are the kid fighting in the Civil War.
