This powerful and riveting tale of one close-knit, proud Korean family movingly addresses life-and-death issues of courage and collaboration, injustice, and death-defying determination in the face of totalitarian oppression. Because Korea is under Japanese occupation, the children study Japanese and speak it at school. (Kirkus starred review) Sun-hee and her older brother, Tae-yul, live in Korea with their parents.
When World War II comes to Korea, Sun-hee is surprised that the Japanese expect their Korean subjects to fight on their side. Their own language, their flag, the folktales Uncle tells them--even their names--are all part of the Korean culture that is now forbidden. But the greatest shock of all comes when Tae-yul enlists in the Japanese army in an attempt to protect Uncle, who is suspected of aiding the Korean resistance.
Sun-hee stays behind, entrusted with the life-and-death secrets of a family at war. This moving historical novel is from Newbery Medalist Linda Sue Park, whose beloved middle grade books include A Single Shard and A Long Walk to Water.
