Summary
Chronicles the close friendship between two Japanese-American sisters growing up in rural Georgia during the late 1950s and early 1960s, and the despair when one sister becomes terminally ill.
Amazon.com description: Product Description: Glittering. Thatâs how Katie Takeshimaâs sister, Lynn, makes everything seem. The sky is kira-kira because its color is deep but see-through at the same time. The sea is kira-kira for the same reason. And so are peopleâs eyes. When Katie and her family move from a Japanese community in Iowa to the Deep South of Georgia, itâs Lynn who explains to her why people stop them on the street to stare. And itâs Lynn who, with her special way of viewing the world, teaches Katie to look beyond tomorrow. But when Lynn becomes desperately ill, and the whole family begins to fall apart, it is up to Katie to find a way to remind them all that there is always something glitteringâkira-kiraâin the future.
Luminous in its persistence of love and hope, Kira-Kira is Cynthia Kadohataâs stunning debut in middle-grade fiction.
