Description

If you’ve ever wondered what it might have been like to be in the navy during WWII, this educational choose-your-own-adventure gives you a chance to explore it for yourself. Like other choose-your-own-adventure books, as students read, they will encounter scenarios where their choices will lead to different outcomes. The big difference with this book (and others in the series) is that each option leads to an outcome that is based in real history—every scenario your student will encounter in this book actually happened to real people during WWII. With three story paths that lead to 22 possible endings, this book is full of historical places, people, and terminology. As students form a more personal connection with this era by moving through a story they choose themselves, learning becomes a natural result. The book includes a timeline, a glossary, a bibliography, and an index, so the learning doesn’t have to end when the story does. 112 pgs, pb.

I loved these kinds of choose-your-own-adventure books when I was a kid and incorporating historical events and facts into the stories makes them even more entertaining. Each book focuses on a different event in history, but it's up to the reader to choose the point of view to take. The story will progress for a few pages and then the reader must make a decision about what course they want to take. Then, the reader turns to the page directed in the book and sees what happens based on the choice made. Choose whether to be a civilian, patriot or British soldier during the Battle of Bunker Hill, whether or not to rush for a lifeboat on the Titanic, what job to take as an Irish Immigrant, and much more. On average, each book has about 3 story paths, 35-45 choices, and 15 different endings. This series will help students see historical events in a new, real way and is just plain fun to read. Each book is about 112 pgs, pb. ~ Rachel
