After Japanese planes bombed Pearl Harbor, over 100,000 Japanese Us citizens were bought to leave their homes. The federal government was scared that because they looked like "the adversary," they could be spies. One North american, librarian Clara Breed, was heartbroken and outraged. As the San Diego Community Library's Children's Librarian, Neglect Breed was near to many of the children who had been evacuated. She went to the train station your day they left, offering postcards and informing them to send her characters. During the years the children were in camps, she sent letters, books, materials, and treats. She became someone the children could count on and someone they could talk to outside the congested, dirty camps.Award-winning writer Joanne Oppenheim was encouraged to write this report after being reunited with a childhood Japanese American good friend who was evacuated.
