About the Author
About the Author
Yoshiko Uchida has written more than twenty-five books for children, including A Jar of Dreams and The Best Bad Thing. Many of Ms. Uchida's writings are inspired by her Japanese-American heritage. During World War II, she and her family were forced to live in West Coast internment camps. It is in this experience that The Bracelet is based.
Critical Reviews
Critical Reviews
Praise for The Bracelet * "Yardley's hushed, realistic paintings add to the poignancy of Uchida's narrative, and help to underscore the absurdity and injustice suffered by Japanese American families such as Emi's."--Publishers Weekly, starred review "Will find a ready readership and prove indispensable for introducing this dark episode in American history"--School Library Journal "A poignant story sensitively told and illustrated."--Children's Literature
