What a great book! Very well written. I loved getting to see the story from two different time perspectives. Henry totally won my heart, both old and young, seeing how he grows up and discovers what matters to him. It definitely got me thinking about what it was like for Chinese people during that time. I'm coming away from this book reeling a little from the emotion in the story. I feel like we spend so much time reading and writing about the events of the war in Europe that we are forgetting a lot of the darker parts of our own country's actions during WWII.
