"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.
