Serafina's Promise

Author: Ann E. Burg

Genre: Realistic Fiction, fictional story about a real event

What it's about: Serafina has a secret dream. She wants to go to school and become a doctor with her friend Julie Marie, but it seems impossible. They have little money and endless chores. Will they ever go to school? What will happen when the floods come, and later the earthquake? Read this book to find out.

What do you think about it: I thought this was a good book that showed what it was truly like to be in the Haitian earthquake or live in Haiti without much money, like Serafina does.

Rating: 4 out of 5 stars

Who would like this book? I think people who are interested in the Haitian earthquake or who like books in verse would enjoy this book.
