BackstoryBooks | Apr 2, 2024 |   I was five when Oklahoma City happened. So I guess I have lived through two terrorist attacks on American soil (what a comforting thought....). However, I knew very little about it and the Survivor Tree. My first foray was in a Karen Kingsbury fiction tale and now, this book for younger audiences. The color palate of stark white and black and bits of green (with other little bits of color mixed....it's striking. It's thought provoking. Sometimes books with the strongest message do not need all the accoutrements. (  ) msgabbythelibrarian | Jun 11, 2023 | fernandie | Sep 15, 2022 | geen besprekingen | voeg een bespreking toe

HTML: A profoundly moving nonfiction picture book about tragedy, hope, and healing from award-winning author Chris Barton. Sometimes bad things happen, and you have to tell everyone. Sometimes terrible things happen, and everybody knows. On April 19, 1995, something terrible happened in Oklahoma City: a bomb exploded, and people were hurt and killed. But that was not the end of the story. Those who survivedâ??and those who were forever changedâ??shared their stories and began to heal. Near the site of the bomb blast, an American elm tree began to heal as well. People took care of the tree just as they took care of each other. The tree and its seedlings now offer solace to people around the world grappling with tragedy and loss. Released to coincide with the 25th anniversary of the Oklahoma City bombing, this book commemorates what was lost and offers hope for the future. "[A] sensitively written and thoughtfully illustrated resource."â??starred, School Library Journal Geen bibliotheekbeschrijvingen gevonden. |

killed embarked on the long process of healing. Their journey was mirrored by that of a tree now known as the
Survivor Tree that was damaged by the blast. This title focuses on how people come together and create
communities rather than on the specifics of the tragedy and perpetrator. Barton and Xu provide an important
resource centered on resilience and grief.
