Vietnam War

Another 8th grade topic in Waldorf schools is U.S. History. Here are the book titles that I like best for a discussion of the Vietnam War (1955 - 1975).

If you have others to recommend, please share!

A Wall of Names: The Story of the Vietnam Veterans Memorial
by Judy Donnelly
even though this book is labeled as a Step 4 early reader,
we found it perfect for an overview of the war

The Coconut Monk
by Thich Nhat Hanh

10,000 Days of Thunder: A History of the Vietnam War
by Philip Caputo

Inside Out and Back Again
by Thanhhà Lai

of course, I also always think of Forrest Gump (PG-13)
