    About this ebook

    Dramatic, gripping, and moving, this sequel to the award-winning We All Fall Down will captivate readers.

    It’s September 12th, 2001, and New York City is at a standstill: somber, bleak and shocked in the aftermath of the World Trade Center attacks. Will knows he and his father are lucky to have escaped; others, like his best friend James’ father are still missing . . . and soon presumed to be dead.

    Poignant and dramatic, United We Stand is a young adult novel about heartache, self-discovery, and the power of friendship.

      Library Review: "Dramatic, gripping, and moving, this sequel to the award-winning We All Fall Down will captivate readers. It's September 12th, 2001, and New York City is at a standstill: somber, bleak and shocked in the aftermath of the World Trade Center attacks.

Poignant and dramatic, United We Stand is a young adult novel about heartache, self-discovery, and the power of friendship."MY THOUGHTS:In honor of 9/11, which happened 11 years and 1 day ago, I decided to review "United We Stand" by Eric Walters. It takes place 1 day after 9/11. It shows the aftermath of 9/11. I like how Eric describes how everyone reacted that day. It made me feel close to those people who lost someone in the twin towers. I recommend this to all of my friends.
