About this listen
As eleven-year-old Peter Nottage stood in the yard, watching in disbelief, a group of Japanese fighter planes swooped down, spraying machine-gun fire across the water. Then the first bomb dropped - and in minutes, Kaneohe Bay was a sea of smoke and flames. To the south, at Pearl Harbor, the huge ships of the American fleet were ablaze. This was no drill. This was war! Through vivid eyewitness accounts, Attack on Pearl Harbor re-creates the dramatic moments of the unforgettable day that America entered World War II.

Captivating Short Story From Several Perspectives
Tells several tales in less than an hour from the perspectives of a local boy, a Japanese airman, submariner, and an American sailor. Their summarized stories are a microcosm of that fateful day that inform us of much of what happened, and captures some of the emotions and culture that led up to and characterized that day and time.
A highly engaging, interesting, and informative time capsule.

Almost Felt As If I Were There.. Glad I Wasn't!
This was a really good short narration of the days that led up to America entering into World War II following the attacks by the Japanese on Pearl Harbor.
The author did an excellent job on really helping me to feel as if I was actually there! (not that I wished I were there!)

Engaging short story
Very engaging, both content and the reading. I liked there were several storylines within the big picture as well as closure to each of those men’s lives. I thought the story to well written, giving vignettes of a few men’s lives in short story.

Good Introduction to Pearl Harbor Attack
This is an excellent book for children or even adults to get an introduction to what happened at Pearl Harbor and what propelled the United States into entering World War II. It would make an excellent home school tool as well, aiding parents and children in coming up with discussion points on what it must have felt like to be in Hawaii when the Japanese attacked. Great audio short!
