5.0 out of 5 stars Story of Enduring, January 24, 2001
By 
Traci Peoples (Westerville, OH USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: What the Scarecrow Said (Paperback)
**Book Description: This story of a Japanese-American show the power of one man overcoming the struggles that he faced. During a time of hatred and judgment, William Fujita found a way endure. World War II was not the best time for him and his family. Each day he faces the cruelty of people around him. But through the friendships with people he came to work with, he was able to love and prevail over evil. **Review: The book takes the reader into the mind of a man that is suffering through a lot and finding the strength to endure. Not only is this book encouraging, but it also shows a life that many chose not to see during World War II. The description shows the truth that had been hidden. However, now it has become a great story of discovery. A discovery of the lives that people tried to block out. It is not an extravagent tale of a man that went on to be famous. The story is about a simple man that still made a difference and had to face the prejudice numerous times in his life.
