Not really. They're pretty much the same, only the ukulele is smaller. So, if you're a smaller person, it would probably be easier to go for that one.
But if you have bigger hands that can't work with small strings, I'd go for the guitar. Only downside is that guitars are more expensive. Ukuleles are really cheap.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
