I'm teaching a section of 8th grade history this year -- I'm ordinarily teaching language arts classes. I'm going to read a work of historical fiction with the class called, When the Emperor Was Divine. But I'd also like to read some nonfiction, even if it's just an article or chapters of a book.
Does anybody have a suggestion for compelling and informative nonfiction about WWII that 8th graders would find interesting? It doesn't necessarily have to be at a middle school level as I can read it with them (especially if it's a chapter or two) to help them access it.
