"Kiku is on vacation in San Francisco when suddenly she finds
herself displaced to the 1940s Japanese-American internment camp that
her late grandmother, Ernestina, was forcibly relocated to during
World War II. These displacements keep occurring until Kiku finds
herself stuck back in time. Living alongside her young grandmother
and other Japanese-American citizens in internment camps, Kiku gets
the education she never received in history class. She witnesses the
lives of Japanese-Americans who were denied their civil liberties and
suffered greatly, but managed to cultivate community and commit acts
of resistance in order to survive"—Provided by publisher.
