The Wall (Peter Sis)

The author of this book grew up in Prague. He tells the story of communism from 1948 to when the Berlin Wall fell in 1989. It's the kind of book a kid would sit and read and look at pictures and think about for hours.

I have read a few books involving communism, and it is a difficult concept for them to understand, thankfully! This book would give them some good background on what was all involved in communism.
