#FirstPageFriday

In honour of National Poetry Month, the #FirstPageFriday pick is the novel-in-verse CROSSING STONES by Helen Frost.

Introducing: Two families who live close together and the children have grown up as close friends.

The set up: The two older brothers enlist in World War I, and their 2 younger sisters experience the impacts of the war at home.

What happens: Will both boys make it home? How do their sisters change because of war? How does this affect their friendships? What about love — lost or found?
