    Product Description

    By Yoshiko Uchida. Foreword by Traci Chee.
    First published in 1971, this novel was the first children’s book about the wartime incarceration written by a Japanese American. This fiftieth anniversary edition features new cover art by Patricia Wakida and a refreshed design.
    This much-loved and widely read classic is the moving story of one girl’s struggle to remain brave during the World War II incarceration of Japanese Americans. In 1941, eleven-year-old Yuki is looking forward to Christmas when disaster strikes: she and her family, along with everyone of Japanese descent on the West Coast, are labeled enemy aliens. The FBI arrests her father, and she, her mother, and her brother are imprisoned in a bleak and dusty camp surrounded by barbed wire in the Utah desert. There, she and her family experience both true friendship and heart-wrenching tragedy.
    Paper: 168 pp.
