    🐕 Good, steady pace

By Erich Maria Remarque , Arthur Wesley Wheen (translator) ,

Why should I read it?

24 authors picked All Quiet on the Western Front as one of their favorite books, and they share why you should read it. This book is for kids age 9, 10, 11, and 12.

Through his eyes we see all the realities of war; under fire, on patrol, waiting in the trenches, at home on leave, and in hospitals and dressing stations. Although there are vividly described incidents which remain in mind, there is no sense of adventure here, only the feeling of youth betrayed and a deceptively simple indictment of war - of any war - told for a whole generation of victims.
