I enjoyed this tale. I don't know much a out what was happening in Japan during WWII, so this was a nice glimpse of history and a happy ending.

A beautiful piece of historical fiction told through two Japanese teens during World War 2. Both are affected by the war but build a magical connection through music until the looming threat of the conflict makes an impact in their lives. Absolutely breathtajing!
