VHS Student

If your one of those kids that have to do one of those boring book projects for S.S. class, then do it on this. This is seriously an awesome book, compared to all the other books on the list you were given. The narrator in the book moved me. If your interested in the Armenian Genocide or anything in the Asian region then get this book for sure. And its Also a pretty good sized book so its not too small but not too long at all....get this book now.

Unforgettable Imagery

This is a narrative of the genocide from an 8 year old's point of view. You will see things from a child's perspective with graphic details that are powerful and unforgettable. Kerop Bedoukian's style is top rate, right along with David Kherdian. The narrator's experience as a child gives a light hearted view of the genocide as well as the gruesome imagery innocently described by the 8 year old urchin. This book contains one of the most vivid and moving narratives you will ever read about the genocide.
