description"A powerful and passionate novel that tells, through the eyes of a young girl, the moving story of the Japanese Canadians during World War II. Naomi Nakane--sheltered, beloved--is only five years old in 1941. Then comes Pearly Harbor, and before the end of that year, Naomi, forcibly separated from her mother, is watching bewildered as she and her family become 'enemy aliens,' persecuted and despised in their own land."
