Finally! A book I really enjoyed. Katie, the main character in Cynthia Kadohata’s Newbery Award-winning Kira-Kira, is someone many people could relate to. She loves her family, including Lynn, her older sister that seems to be more talented at school, and life in general, than Katie. Lynn and Katie’s parents, immigrants from Japan, work in a hatchery in Georgia and struggle to give their children a better life.
It’s an American Dream story. It’s a Death in the Family story. It’s really very good.
