Summary: I Remember The Alamo by D. Anne Love
Review: I read I Remember The Alamo by D. Anne Love. This book was about an eleven year old girl named Jessie. In the beginning of the book, Jessie's dad announces that he wants to move to Texas. The next day, they are on their way. When her family arrives, Jessie becomes friends with a Mexican girl named Angelina. However, they have to meet secretly due to the war between the Mexicans and Texians that is about to begin. One day,Jessie's father and old brother announce they are going to fight for Texas. While gone, the rest of the family hides in the safe Alamo. Suddenly, the family gets some shocking news, however, Angelina knows the truth! What happens next? I won't tell, you'll just have to read it.

I liked how the book was very exciting and really grabbed me into it. Especially towards the end of the story. I recomend this book to people who like to laugh, and yet learn. D. Anne Love definitly knows how to write great childrens books.

This book taught me a lot about friendship. It shows that no matter who you are, you can have a friend from a different culture.After all, the hand of friendship has no color. This book also shows that war doesn't solve problems. When you think about it today, you know it was wrong because a bunch of people from different races live in Texas. I would consider this book my favorite, not only because it is great, but how it has a moral too!

Summary: I Remember the Alamo
Review: What an awesome story! I loved this book. It is a historical fiction book full of drama and suspense and very well written. I cried at least three times while reading this book. When I first picked it out, I wondered how good it would be, since I knew the outcome of the story, but Love kept my attention the whole way through. I highly recommend this book to children (or adults) who enjoy Texas History or is taking Texas History. It gives a very personal look into the lives of people who suffered for the rights and freedom that Texans now hold. A FIVE STAR BOOK!
