By Ken Mochizuki. Illustrated by Dom Lee. “Real heroes don’t brag,” Uncle Yosh says. “They just do what they are supposed to do.” Set against the backdrop of the 1960s, this interg enerational story explores how one family deals with the painful legacy of war and prejudice. In their powerful follow-up to the award-winning Baseball Saved Us, Ken Mochizuki and Dom Lee once again present young readers with American heroes they won’t usually find in history books, but whom they can always hold in their hearts.
