A personal story of life leading up to, during, and immediately following the bombing of Nagasaki. Interspersed throughout the text are personal and historical photos with wonderfully detailed captions. Encyclopedia-like entries at key points in the text describe historical events, providing greater insight and depth. Includes glossary of Japanese words, bibliography, notes, index, resources for additional reading. (

Beautifully written collaboration between Caren Stelson and Sachiko Yasui. Love the blend of short chapters, photographs, and interleaved historical context pieces. A lot of devastating content, uplifted by Sachiko's message of peace and nonviolent resistance. (

Sachiko was just six years old when the atomic bomb dropped a half-mile from where she was playing. This informational text provides a remarkable new perspective on Sachiko and her family enduring the blast and persevering through the physical, emotional, and social trauma that followed.

Didn't realize this was a juvenile bio-- I definitely wanted a lot more depth about Sachiko after reading it! But I think it was a well-done presentation of the effects of nuclear war without being overly focused on the horror. (

This was a hard to read book at first, with gruesome details of what happened to a girl and her family. The event continues to affect her whole life. Despite all the loss she faces as a result from the bomb, she has the courage to stand up and speak out in hopes of stopping others from experiencing what they had to as a result of the nuclear bombs. This would be a good book to assign to a class going over the war, however some of the content may be too graphic for younger audiences so use with discretion. (
