Summary: Slow in the beginning, but more exciting towards the end,
Review: This book is about a fourteen-year-old boy name Sorry Rinamu, and his family. It takes place in the 1940's. The story is set in the Bikini Atoll. Sorry's uncle, Abram Makaoliej, came home after being in the US for several years. He tells Sorry all kinds of stories. He can even speak English. Americans come to the island an tell the people tht they want to use Bikini Island to test the atom bomb. Abram and Sorry decide to protest but then Abram dies. Abram had important values. He wanted nothing to stop him from saving the island he belonged to. He would everything in his power to save it-even die. I liked this from the middle to the end, but I thought the beginning was boring because I couldn't really understand it. Toward the end, it started to get interesting.

Rating: 5 stars

Summary: The Review
Review: This book is great for people who want to know more about world war II. This book is a great story. It is exciting and factual. The story is kind of sad at the end for some reason which i will not tell you here because you must find out by reading it yourself. But i'll give you a description of Sorry. Sorry is a good boy who has lived on The island of Bikini all his life. Yet he must now try to stop the Americans from dropping an atom bomb on their lagoon.

This story will make you keep reading it more and more. Its intense excitement is excellent. I give this book 2 thumbs up and 4 stars. If you were to pick up this book right now and read it you would never be able to put it down until your donewith it. This book is DA BOMB!!!!

Summary: This is a book you won't want to put down.
Review: This book is really good for those who want to know about the past around the time of World War II. It is really exciting,but sad because the bombing actually happened. Sorry Rinamu, the major character, is trying to stop the American government from testing the atomic bomb on his home. That is so brave! I really hope others read and enjoy the book as much as I did. This is da bomb book!

Rating: 4 stars

Summary: Dull, boring, slow and a waste of my time
Review: This factual novel by Theodore Taylor takes place on the small Bikini Atoll in the western Pacific that has been chosen to be the test site of the atomic bomb. A boy on the atoll, Sorry, is suddenly caught in the middle of a debate between the Americans and the Bikinians on whether to relocate or not. Sorry is soon informed by his uncle that the Americans are up to no good and if the Bikinians relocate that more than likely they will never see their island again. This book isn't very good because it was slow and hard to follow. I would not recommend this book to kids or teens.
