Knowing You by Tracie Peterson
May is biracial. The Japanese side of herself longs to learn all she can about Japan. While reading this book I think of Mount Rainier. She mentions it. Japan is a beautiful country. May's mother is Japanese. However, thoughts of Japan only make her sad. She does not tell why she hates Japan. May and her father, he is White, have no idea how to make her open up to them. Knowing you is really a lovely book. The author is able to capture a place, Japan, with only words.
