Shizue's path

Sakamoto, Mark, 1977-,

"Framed as a conversation between a grandmother and the reader, Shizue's Path follows the story of a young Shizue growing up in Canada against the backdrop of World War II. As the war worsens, so too does Shizue's position in Canadian society. Torn away from her elementary school and sent to an internment camp along with her family, Shizue looks to anyone who might speak truth to power-but she is met with silence. After the war, things only get worse for Shizue as Japanese-Canadians face the threat of deportation. Fortunately, the Canadians around Shizue are no longer silent. As various communities come together to protest this racist bill, Shizue learns first-hand how one individual can have a far-reaching effect on another's life. Inspired by the life of his great-aunt, Mark Sakamoto weaves personal and political history with a keen sense of justice and optimism....[This is a] story about a girl who, swept up by the waters of the world, uses her voice to create ripples of kindness." --publisher's website.
