I thought the funniest line in the book was when Waka‘s grandma told her, “A lot of Japanese women, their butts are quite flat. You should be happy yours isn‘t.” 😂😂

pickAs it turns out, I am beginning to enjoy biographies, autobiographies, and memoirs more than I thought I would, especially ones written for young adult readers. I like how this one felt like a fiction story about a young girl and not a chronological list of facts about the author‘s life. It made the reading easy and enjoyable.
pickPoignant story of Japanese American soldier who fought with honor against Germans in Europe. He succeeded as a soldier despite a lot of prejudice at home. His family was at Topaz camp in Utah.
I am reading this one now about Japanese American soldiers in Europe during the big war, while their families were interned in camps back home!
