Book Review: The War in Iraq provides a brief overview of a complicated war. In four chapters, this resource covers the rising conflict, the specific military operations, why the region remains unstable, and ongoing issues related to the war in Iraq. Interesting sidebars called Pointing Out pepper the narrative and provide further insight about the time period. This series is far from comprehensive but does a good job of explaining the main points of this historic event to middle grade students who have no memory of the time period. Beautiful full-color photo illustrations bring the war to life and enhance the reader’s experience. This is an ideal series for middle and high school students who have little prior knowledge of these events. Includes a timeline, end notes, bibliography, websites, and an index.
