Harada, Violet H. – Children's Literature in Education, 1998
Discusses the work of Japanese-American writer Yoshiko Uchida, who accurately re-creates a sense of the past in her depictions of Japanese-Americans struggling to define their self-images. Examines Uchida's treatment of several sociocultural issues and themes reflected in her children's works dealing with pre-World War II and internment years. (RS)
