Chandas Wars

       I think that Chanda's Wars by Allan Stratton is an absolutely amazing book. It brings you along the life of a young women named Chanda living in Africa. She is forced to take care of her brother and sister after her mother passes. A trip to her visit her mothers family in Trio brings Chanda on an adventure that changes her life. It teaches about history, religion, geography and the different cultures of the world in an inspiring story. This story leaves you wondering what will happen next and makes you wanting to read more. Through the book you find yourself getting attached to the characters and feeling like you are in the position they are in. I think that this story is written in a manner that both boys and girls would love. This was the first book I read by Allan Stratton, but I will defiantly pick up another book by him.
