Shadows on the Sea By: Joan Hiatt Harlow

Significance and Perspective

I chose to read this book because it looked interesting and I love to read historical fiction.This book relates to people who were living during the 1940's. in the northern east coast because many ships were either bombed or torpedoed and many lives were taken.

Evidence

A fact is a statement that is true, and an opinion is your view of things or what you think about something.
Fact:There ate 50 stars on the American Flag.
Opinion:Spinich is gross.

Connection

Knowing that just this little piece of time that "happened" in history, it gives me the feel of how scared people were in the war and how people felt.

Supposition

If the author had made the Caribou -the ship that Jill's mother was on- had gotten torpedoed, it would have made the book a lot sadder and some of the events that happened probably would not have happened.
