Description - Erika-san by Allen Say

Caldecott Medalist Allen Say creates a beautiful story about an American girl who seeks adventure in Japan and discovers more than she could have imagined.

In her grandmother's house there is one Japanese print of a small house with lighted windows.Even as a small girl, Erika loved that picture.

It will pull her through childhood, across vast oceans and modern cities, then into towns-older, quieter places-she has only ever dreamed about.

But Erika cannot truly know what she will find there, among the rocky seacoasts, the rice paddies, the circle of mountains, and the class of children.

For Erika-san, can Japan be all that she has imagined?
