Ground zero
I love learning about history and digging into this book, you feel the ground, feel the feelings, feel the sadness. It’s like being there! I know people that were alive when this happened. It’s an amazing story in to different times one the same day. 2001, and 2019. “In an instant, the world can change forever”. 👍
