"This was an easy read because of the intrigue, the history that I learned so much about and the humor. I learned a great deal about how children cope with war, which helped me to consider what it is like currently for children in war zones throughout the war. To read how Nino's mother sacrificed for her children made me realize that my life is so easy. I cried along with Nino and laughed at his antics. This is a touching book on so many levels."--(Brain Foggles, brainfoggles.com/2009/07/31/innocent-war-book-review-and-giveaway)
