A Gem

I found this book very interesting and captivating. Once I began reading it, I could not put it down. The author, Jennifer Cook, does an excellent job of drawing the reader into the story. Although this book is intended for a younger audience, I enjoyed it immensely and I'm 53 years old. It held my curiosity and interest until the very end. It is an action packed adventure in which the young people play roles equal to their parents. The setting of the fall of Tehran and the return of the Ayatolah Komeini to lead the revolution is based on historical fact and is developed in an interesting and entirely approachable way for young readers. With her impeccable research, Ms. Cook introduces the reader to aspects and interpretations of Iranian history that I, for one, had never known existed. I strongly recommend this book for people of any age. Congratulations to Jennifer Cook and I hope she writes another book soon.
