Truce: the day soldiers stopped fighting is a non-fiction, war, historical, young-adult book by Jim Murphy. The book takes place in 1914 during the First World War on the Western front, where both German and British troops fought against one another in bloody trench battles, until on day the bullets stopped firing and both German and British troops had an unofficial truce to celebrate Christmas together. The book is truly an emotional tale, and highlights the goodness in humanity. I would recommend both middle and high schools students to read this amazing book.
