1.I would recommend this book to middle elementary kids.
2.This book goes through a first hand experience of what it was like to live interment camp. They would play baseball all the time. Then he went back to where he lived before the interment camp. Then he plays really well but gets called mean things when he is up to bat or playing baseball in general.
3.I would recommend this book to middle level elementary classrooms. I think that it is quite heavy for a young elementary student but very informational for a middle level student in terms of culture.

I love stories of the resilience of Japanese families during their WWII internment. This book celebrates the baseball teams the elders formed on the camp, and the way it gave people courage, self-respect, and connection.

Story deals with tough topic of Japanese internment camps in America in the 1940s. Parents should be prepared to answer questions that may arise during reading.

Such a sad and difficult topic to explain to students but this book does such a wonderful job of taking on that challenge. It does it in a way that is accessible to children. Having the story from a child's perspective and then also adding in the layer of baseball makes it even more accessible to students.

This is a poignant and inspiring book probably best for upper elementary or middle schoolers. It delves into the experiences of Japanese Americans during World War II. This heartfelt story follows Shorty, a young Japanese American boy, as he navigates the challenges of life in an internment camp. Through the power of baseball, Shorty and his friends find solace, resilience, and a sense of identity amidst the injustices they face. With detailed illustrations and a compelling narrative, this book serves as a reminder of the strength of the human spirit and the importance of unity in the face of adversity. In the classroom this book could prompt conversations about history, discrimination, and the enduring power of hope. ( )

Grade 1-4–During World War II the author's parents were sent to an internment camp in Idaho. That family history led to this poignant story about a young Japanese-American boy in an internment camp and the baseball diamond that gave the internees a purpose in life and a way of passing the time. The young boy's triumph in a game played while in captivity helps him when he returns home and continues his baseball career. The baseball heading over the fence on the last page tugs at the heart of readers as it symbolizes freedom lost, and regained. Author Ken Mochizuki reads his award-winning book (Lee & Low, 1993). There is some soft background music, and a few gentle sound effects, but the power of the words need little embellishment. Young students will be made aware of the overt racism Japanese-Americans faced during this period of history. This treasure of a book is well-treated in this format.
