In this book, Cynthia Kadohata weaves an exciting novel of a girl named Katie and her older sister, Lynnie, also known as Lynn. Their parents are at work most of the time, so Lynn is in charge of her. Katie also has a brother named Samson. This Japanese family seems to have a hard time fitting in. How will they manage? With her older sister with a sickness and her brother limping around, how does Katie manage to keep to herself and help the world? The mean boys and girls at school are teasing her and it doesn't help that Lynn isn't there to help her. Katie is in a difficult position in life right now, but she is still strong and holding. However, for how long more? Her uncle isn't the sanest person in her family. We could all agree on calling him insane. Still, Katie has spirit in her and she manages to pull through the hard times that await her!

** I give this book a 9out of 10. It was really good!
