Summary: The War Within Book Review by Stephanie
Comment: Ten days ago, I knew what was important: order, decorum, manners, and etiquette. That is what it meant to be a southern lady.
In Carol Matas' The War Within, Hannah, a 13-year-old girl is forced to leave her home in Hollow Springs and move to Memphis, but before she reaches Memphis, they are forced to go somewhere else. They are forced to go somewhere else because they are Jews. The soldier that sent them somewhere else also said all of their slaves could leave if they wanted to. Then Hannah comes down with a horrible cold. The cold causes her eyes to swell so she can't open them. Will she ever be able to open her eyes again? Hannah somehow finds a way to fight strong wind, downpours and other obstacles with blind eyes. Carol Matas has won the best-selling author award.
This book is perfect for everyone, including boys and girls. It teaches everyone the dangerous elements of the outdoors, such as quicksand, rushing water, etc. Readers will learn how to avoid these dangerous elements. While adults are reading about dangerous elements kids will be interested in other things. The boys will like reading about the war and talking to soldiers while the girls will like the dresses and dolls. This is why this book is perfect for everyone.

Summary: The War Within
Comment: The War Within was the best book i have ever read. Its about a southern family who are being kicked out of Holly Springs, Mississippi because they are Jewish, while her 2 brothers and father are away at the war. Her sister Joanna mets a Yankee and runs of with him to tend to him during the war because he is injured. There is much more i just dont want to ruin the book for you if you read it!

The women and younger brother's, along with their three slaves, are left to take care of the home. Hannah's view of the world was that Negroes were inferior to whites and that all Union "Yankees" were bad. As the war outside their home carries on a war develops within between Hannah and her sister Joanna, after Joanna falls in love with a Union Captain. Hannah cannot bring herself to think past her own world. She considers her sister a traitor. Once Hannah is discriminated against because of her religion she begins to think differently.
