Time Enough for Drums
By Ann Rinaldi
This book review is written by one of my 5th grade students, Veronica.
Genre: YA Historical Fiction
Review: Time Enough For Drums
was set in the 1700s during the Revolutionary War time. I like being able to
see the War through a different perspective. Jem, a 15-year-old girl is telling
the story. I thought the book was interesting because it also noted significant
historical events while still keeping you hooked. During the end of the book,
though it started getting very sappy and a lot of disappointments happened all
at once. It was very clever of Ann Rinaldi to do it through a regular
colonist’s perspective because I got to see what one person would think of
George Washington and what they felt during the war. Overall, I think Time Enough For Drums was a good read,
while also giving you historical facts about the war.
