September 11, 2001, 8:45 AM. A moment that divided history into "before" and "after." In Alan Gratz's powerful narrative, we experience this pivotal day through two young lives: nine-year-old Brandon Chavez in New York City and eleven-year-old Reshmina in rural Afghanistan. Brandon shouldn't be at the World Trade Center that morning-he should be in his seventh-grade classroom. But a three-day suspension for defending a friend against a bully has turned into an impromptu father-son workday at Windows on the World restaurant, where his dad works as a sous chef. As Brandon fidgets with his visitor's badge dated "September 11, 2001," he has no idea his world is about to shatter. Seven thousand miles away, Reshmina gathers firewood outside her village, whispering English numbers under her breath-small acts of rebellion in a place where girls' education remains controversial. The distant sound of American helicopters makes her freeze. Two years ago, her beloved sister Hila was killed by American bombs-a loss that transformed her once-peaceful family. These two children-separated by language, culture, and continents-stand at the precipice of events that will reshape their worlds and connect them in ways they could never imagine.
