"An extraordinary book, one no reader will fail to find
compelling and unforgettable." --"Booklist," starred review
The star of her school's running team, Sadako is lively and
athletic...until the dizzy spells start. Then she must face the
hardest race of her life--the race against time. Based on a true
story, "Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes" celebrates the
courage that makes one young woman a heroine in Japan.
" The] story speaks directly to young readers of the tragedy of
Sadako's death and, in its simplicity, makes a universal statement
for 'peace in the world." --"The Horn Book ""The story is told
tenderly but with neither a morbid nor a sentimental tone: it is
direct and touching." --"BCCB"
