Remember World War II: Kids Who Survived Tell Their Stories allows
readers to understand the war not as seen through the eyes of soldiers
but through the eyes of children who survived the bombings, the
blackouts, the hunger, the fear, and the loss of loved ones caused by
the war. The author shares her own recollections of being able to see
the faces of Japanese pilots as they headed for the naval base at Pearl
Harbor to drop their deadly bombs on unsuspecting American ships and
soldiers, then shares her feelings at having to leave her father behind
as the rest of the family is evacuated to the U.S. mainland.
