Krátky popis
“Captures the resilience of human dignity and optimism. . .. A
powerful must-read.” — BooklistDuring World War II, Tama is sent to
live in an incarceration camp in the desert. All Japanese Americans
from the West Coast — elderly people, children, babies — now live
in camps like Minidoka.To be who she is has become a crime, and
Tama doesn’t know when or if she will ever leave. Trying not to
think of the life she once had, she works in the incarceration
camp’s tiny library, taking solace in pages bursting with colour
and light, love and fairness. And she isn’t the only one.George
waits each morning by the door, his arms piled with books checked
out the day before. As their friendship grows, Tama wonders: Can
anyone possibly read so much? Is she the reason George comes to the
library every day? Maggie Tokuda-Hall and Yas Imamura’s beautifully
illustrated, elegant love story features a photo of the real Tama
and George — the author’s grandparents — and an unflinching and
necessary afterword that helps readers to learn more about a time
in history that continues to resonate.
