As a teacher-librarian, I have the opportunity to read young adult books to share with my students. The list that I have provided will have an overview of the book and personal comments. They are on a Book-mercial style image to get a taste of the essence of the book.

Dazzle Ships : WWI And The Art of Confusion by Barton and Ngai
WWI had the dangerous situation of German U-boats torpedoing ships. But one person came up with a plan to repaint the boats with designs to create an optical illusion that even tricked and convinced the King of England to give it a go. The Illustrations of the book are brilliant and highly sophisticated. The illustrations give it an art deco style. I would award this book for it's content and illustrations. Get this book for any school library. You'll thank me later.
