Stealing Home by J. Torres

✨ "Papa would say that this was all temporary but I learned that day that not only was everything different now... it was never going to be the same again."
A touching and emotional story about a Japanese family who are forced to uproot their lives and sent to a prison camp after the attack of Pearl Harbour.
It was heartbreaking to see the family struggling to retain a sense of normalcy even as increasingly strict and unfair measures are imposed on people of Japanese heritage, before they are carted off to an internment camp.
I also loved seeing how the characters try to find the light even during such dark and bleak times. How they try to make a life in the camp. How family is everything.
Would highly recommend this graphic novel to everyone.
Thank you to Netgalley for an e-ARC of this book.
