Reader Reviews:

A captivating book and not just for children (10/11 people found this helpful)

I was given this book by a friend because I am Jewish and she thought I might like it. To be quite honest, I wasn't thrilled to read it as fun reading for me is fiction where I can disappear while reading. But I did as it wasn't very long and I figured if I read a little a day, I could finish it in a few days. I was wrong...I read it in one sitting. I loved the book. I loved the fact that in Japan they are learning about the Holocaust and I loved how determined Ms. Ishioka was to find out more about the Holocaust, Hana in particular, and teach it to Japanese children. This was a very different book than Anne Frank, which is an exceptional book, but it was nice to read something which shows a different way of telling the story. I highly recommend this book.
