Saving Obaachan

By Marie Etchell

Thirteen year old Charlie Campbell has moved to Victoria and at first, he hates almost everything. A friendship with a classmate presents a mystery as Charlie tries to help Miyu care for Obaachan, her ailing grandmother. With the help of Buster, a chocolate lab retriever who flies into Charlie's life just as he supported Charlie in their earlier adventure, Rescue. As Charlie and Miyu piece together historical information gleaned from the Nikkei Internment memorial Centre, they learn about the internment of Japanese Canadians during World War II, and connect this information to Obaachan -- solving a puzzle and promoting healing from a tragedy which Miyu's grandmother has never fully acknowledged.
