English/History teachers Must-have

This is a remarkable book to reach students. I first read it looking for items for my classroom bibliography for Asian-Pacific month in my high school Creative Writing class. Not only is this very factual, but it allows many voices to "speak" about their individual experiences prior to, during, and after the horrific event. I teach honors students as well as emergent English students. All were fascinated and rave about the book. This one was taken home for parents and siblings to read. I am requiring this book and James Clavell's The Children's Hour in my curriculum this year. They are good, cautionary pieces, easily understood and small enough to not daunt the reluctant reader. I believe world events DEMAND these be required reading by all thinking people.
