Can folks recommend some YA nonfiction about 20th century history? I find the offerings in our local bookstores thin. My 14 yo son loved the YA version of Unbroken, for ex, and we just read Escape from Camp 14 together, which is also what I’m looking for — very accessible but not formally YA.

@ablerism My son (about same age) read John Lewis's three-volume "March" series and enjoyed it. (They are styled like graphic novels.)

@ablerism My kiddo is a big fan of the Nathan Hale Hazardous Tales books. He has a couple that go into the 20th century.

@jaheppler @ablerism My 11yo has been burning through that series as well. We literally just got home from picking up two more he had requested from the library.

@ablerism Escape from Camp 14 is the first audiobook I ever listened to. If that’s in the category, then I highly recommend A Higher Call by Adam Makos
