What this book is about:
Big Bad Ironclad is a graphic novel about Nathan Hale. Hale is a spy during the Revolutionary war and is about to be hung. He can see the future so he avoids the hanging by telling the hangman stories about the history of the United States. The story in this book is about the first ironclads in the civil war, warships covered in iron plates to better withstand attacks. The North builds the Monitor and the South builds the Virginia, two almost unstoppable ironclads. Who will be able to win the battle of the two ironclads? Read the book to find out.
Why I liked this book:
I liked this book because it is funny and has lots of action. Even though it is a true story, there are a few made up conversations that make the book really humorous and a little silly. There are also many battles in the ocean which adds action and excitement. I hope you enjoy the book as much as I did!
