This is a very long book. The words are so small. There is like 20 pages per chapter and there is 10 chapters.

this book has different cover than shown in pbs system, think it is more updated cover
It is 1945, and courageous 10 yr old Sookan and her family must endure the cruelties of the Japanese military occupying Korea. Police capt Narita does his best to destroy everything of value to the family, but he cannot break their spirit. Here is the incredible story of one family's love for each other and their determination to risk everything to find freedom.
