FROM SARAH:

Few nonfiction picture books tell a story of forgiveness and redemption as powerfully as this one. This moving biography shows how a former enemy and a small town found their way to friendship, and invites readers to consider what it means to make amends after a war. I’d recommend it for readers 8 and up due to the heavier content.

FROM THE PUBLISHER:

In this important and moving true story of reconciliation after war, beautifully illustrated in watercolor, a Japanese pilot bombs the continental U.S. during WWII—the only enemy ever to do so—and comes back 20 years later to apologize.
