TWTSML is historical fiction that is gripping, heartwarming, and empowering. A PhD librarian in charge of children's and young adult purchases for a major library, I like to say she keeps me abreast of the best, and my own library has dozens of children's books when the youngest person in my home is 10 years out of college. Of course, this is a book I never would have selected without the guidance of my watchful and wise librarian sister. The winner of the 2016 Newbery Honor, as well as winner of the 2016 Schneider Family award and a NY Times bestseller, The War That Saved My Life is marketed as a *Young Readers* book, yet ranks in the top 10 of my 2016 *best of* reads. Normally I wouldn't write a review for a book with so many lovely reviews already posted, but there is a chance that somebody will read just one more review, and make the decision to read this fantastic book.
