Summary
"Before you go any further, you should know a few things: 1. After Japan bombed Pearl Harbor, the US government took me away from my home, my school, and my friends, and stuck me and my family in this prison camp in the desert called Manzanar, just because we're Japanese American. 2. Now that my brother, Mak, has turned eighteen, he's signed up for the army, and they're sending him off to war. 3. I've stopped talking for the duration of the war. Or at least until Mak comes home. But I'm still drawing." --Book jacket
