Towns were ravaged, people went without.įollowing children's books depict soldier stories, background details, and a peek into civilian life during the Civil War.Brother against Brother by William C. This wasĬertainly not the case during the Civil War. Based on theirĮxperience, students sometimes mistakenlyĪssume that war is something that impacts only the soldiers. War really doesn't impact their lives at all. Modern wars like Afghanistan and Iraq are in distant lands,Īnd unless a student personally knows someone fighting in those wars, We especially like the fictional "soldier diaries" AND the stories of civilian life during theĬivil War. Children can't help but be drawn into the time period when reading these kid-friendly soldier's diaries, age appropriate explanations about the Civil War, and compelling stories about civilian life during the war. Great children's books can really make life during the Civil War come to life.
