My Silent Reading Novel


At first sight We All Fall Down seems like a child's book with wooden blocks making up the face of the book, but when you begin to read the book you realize that it is an emotional, suspenseful and heart wrenching story of a boy named Will and his father John. Will is on a "take your kid to work day" with his father at his business on the 85th floor of the south tower of the world trade centre. During the early hours of the work day the tower they are working in is unexpectedly attacked when United flight 175 slammed into the side of their tower. They make their way past the blaze where the plane hit, rescued a trapped business woman and they escaped the building just before it collapsed. To sequel We All Fall Down is the second book in the series United We Stand. like We All Fall Down United We Stand is about Will and his father John. It is about their life after the 9/11 attacks on the World Trade Centre, the novel also includes their struggles with coping with what they saw and had been through and helping Will's friend who lost his father in the attacks. I would recommend this series to anybody as it has become one of my favourite series.
