Publisher's summary

On the day that shocks the world, one boy just wants to find his family. A powerful addition to the gripping I Survived series.

The only thing Lucas loves more than football is his Uncle Benny, his dad's best friend at the fire department where they both work. Benny taught Lucas everything about football. So when Lucas' parents decide the sport is too dangerous and he needs to quit, Lucas has to talk to his biggest fan.

So the next morning, Lucas takes the train to the city instead of the bus to school. It's a bright, beautiful day in New York. But just as Lucas arrives at his uncle's firehouse, everything changes - and nothing will ever be the same again.

Audio extra: includes author's notes, read by Lauren Tarshis!

Super great book

Action packed,but it brings out a melancholy and joyful feeling. This is not a good book for younger children,because it includes moments that are not very apropiot for kids 6-.

Very generalized re-telling of 9/11

Not much substance, but if you don't know much of 9/11, then it's a decent listen.

Heartfelt story

The performance is great. Tarshis has a great book about a day most parents remember. I cried multiple times as I remembered this day through the eyes of Lucas. I was able to talk about my own reaction to this day as I listened with
my children.
