This seems like a fun challenge.
I recently read a book that you might like to add to your challenge. It's a WWII book so you can check that off your list.
It's actually a different kind of book unique in that it is a memoir not merely of a child’s life as lived during WWII , but it defines the ramifications of how that war, or any war, impacts the civilian population in big and small ways. tThe book I am referring to is called Abandoned and Forgotten; An Orphan Girl’s Tale of Survival During World War II and it's written by a wonderful writer, Evelyne Tannehill. I hope you succeed at your challenge and would love to see what you chose for all the books!
Good Luck and enjoy!
