Synopsis:
A Boy at War:
After witnessing the USS Arizona sink in Pearl Harbor with his father aboard fifteen-year-old Adam Pelko, along with his mother and young sister,
moves from Hawaii to California. Without his dad, facing a new school and new surroundings is hard enough, but then Adam’s best friend, Davi Mon, writes from Hawaii asking for help in finding his father. Davi and his family are Japanese Americans, and his father has been arrested and is imprisoned somewhere in the United States.
What is Adam to do? Can he risk traveling to Manzanar, a Japanese internment camp, and asking questions? At a time when the nation is threatened and all foreigners are viewed with suspicion, who can Adam trust?
In this riveting follow-up to his acclaimed book A Boy at War, Henry Mazer explores questions of friendship and loyalty against the backdrop of World War Il, a time when boys had to grow up fast.
