Many thanks to Monica for voicing her concerns. As has been discussed on this and other list-servs, "bibliotherapy" is a risky business. With media coverage being what it is, why assume that children need to hear more about war? Instead, perhaps we should focus on finding ways to provide a diversion from the worries and fears and ever present war talk. Find some funny books and give these kids a break and a reason to laugh out loud!!
