by Elizabeth (Pennsylvania): Oai deki te ureshii desu ….How are you today, beautiful?
That quote from the book says it all….what an incredible, heartfelt, interesting story…this book is set during World War II and is about the childhood love of a Japanese girl and a Chinese boy during World War II and takes place specifically during the encampment of the Japanese people who lived in Seattle, Washington…it will keep your interest and teach you some history…I learned about The Panama Hotel in Seattle, Washington.
It also is about the conflict between Henry and his Chinese father and the beauty of friendships…it also has some music facts in it for all you jazz fans.
I don’t want to give too much away, but it is a nostalgic book and one you will want to tell others about….it is similar to Snow Falling on Cedars.
You will absolutely enjoy it and love it. I loved the story and the lessons learned.
