An American girl of Japanese ancestry is exiled in her own country after Japan attacks Pearl Harbor.
After Pearl Harbor, little Marie Mitsui, who considers herself a typical American girl, sees her life of school and playing with friends in San Francisco totally upended. Her family and 120,000 others of Japanese ancestry are forcibly relocated to internment camps far from home. Living conditions in the camps are harsh, life after camp is similarly harsh, but in the end, as she and her family make their way back to San Francisco, Marie sees hope for the future.
Told from a childs perspective, The Little Exile deftly conveys Maries innocence, wonder, fear, and outrage. Though names and some details have been altered, this is the author''s own life story. She believes that underlying everyone''s experience, no matter how varied, are threads of humanity that bind us all. It is her hope that readers of all ages are able to find those threads in her story.
