It will be a day that will never be forgotten... A touching
remembrance of 9/11, The Day The Towers Fell is a mother's poignant
tribute to her firefighter son who, along with many heroic and
brave comrades, died on that fateful day. Christopher Santora was a
dutiful young man, and Maureen Santora's only son, who joined the
New York Fire Academy and became a firefighter in January 2001. He
would die a hero months later on September 11, 2001. So that the
world would never forget, Maureen wrote a book - a colorfully
illustrated picture book with artwork by her daughter Patricia - to
recall the events of 9/11. First, it describes and shows the
everyday scenes before the tragedy took place. It was the first day
of school, after all, and some people were late for office - which
may have helped save their lives. Then there are the
not-so-ordinary scenes during and after the attacks, the planes
crashing into the towers, and the panic and terror that were sown
on the city's inhabitants. But it also recounts how regular
citizens became heroes in their city's time of need, and highlights
how goodness and decency will always be there to fight evil and
hatred. More than just a book, The Day the Towers Fell is a
memorial - to those who died and those who willingly gave up their
lives to save as many as they could. And while they may be no
longer with us, they are always with us in our hearts - forever
remembered.
