Book Reviews of Terrible Things: An Allegory of the Holocaust (Edward E. Elson Classic)
Book Review: A great learning tool, a great teaching tool, as well.
Summary: 5 Stars
Eve Bunting's terrible things is an allegory for bystanders. It helps children of all ages realize that they have a voice and that they should use that voice. This book is extremely helpful to use in lessons in character building, tolerance, and finally, the Holocaust.
I have used this book to have the children act out the different parts (animals) as a lesson, and I have also used it as a tool for children's literacy. I am a high school teacher, and I use it every year in sociology.
It is very well-written, well illustrated, and beautifully put together. I give it my highest rating and recommend it for "children" of all ages.
