Summary
Do you think it would be difficult to be in the time if influenza? Do you know how good it feels to have a sister that sticks up for you? They find a journal and you will never believe what is in it.
Opinion
I liked this book because you can't set it down. Also because you can picture every little detail. I would not change the ending because it ties it all together about everything that happens with the journal, and it is my favorite part.
Connection
I was able to connect to this book because my brother had influenza A and B but not the severe one. So I was able to know what the characters were going through.
Recommendation
I would recommend this book to 4th to 5th graders because they are old enough to understand everything about the book. You will like it because there is a lot of description and it keeps you hanging.
