Recommendations for books on the Russian Revolution?

[Jessika Aguilar]

Dear Seelangers,

My 15-year old niece is learning about the Russian Revolution in class and wants to read more about it on her own.  I'm excited she wants to learn more about Russian history but most of what I have is pretty in-depth, more scholarly stuff and I don't want to turn her off by giving her something that will overload her with information or seem too dry to her.  Does anyone have any recommendations for good books about the Russian Revolution that would be suitable for a high school student - probably something pretty basic since she only knows what she learned in class and something that hopefully will help her interest grow?

Thanks so much!
