Editorial Reviews
From School Library Journal
Grade 7–10—Both books cover their topics thoroughly and include high-quality photographs and occasional sidebars. Lace’s account of the airship has a good deal of intrigue and drama and could be useful for reports or recreational reading. The author does a good job telling the stories of the various passengers and how some of them were later suspected of sabotage. Reis includes solid research and numerous points of view in recounting the Dust Bowl, but the book is more likely to be picked for research projects than for pleasure reading. Both titles are serviceable additions.—Marcia Kochel, Olson Middle School, Bloomington, MN
