About this book

On a quiet Sunday morning in December 1941, Japanese warplanes bombed the U.S. naval base at Pearl Harbor, catching the military and the nation off guard. The narrative recounts the rapid succession of attacks, the bravery of sailors and civilians, and the panic that spread across the islands as the United States entered World War II. It explains how the surprise raid forced America to mobilize its forces, reshaped its foreign policy, and united the country in a fight that would last for years. Written for middle-grade readers, the book mixes clear factual details with vivid storytelling to bring this pivotal moment in American history to life.
