Grandfather's Journey
by Allen Say
What a lovely book about the wanderings of a family. This is told by Allen about his grandfather who visited the USA long ago and feel in love with both this country and his country. He would go back and forth as he loved California so much. He felt homesick for whichever place he just left. His grandson moved from Japan to San Fran when he was 16 and he also feels the same longing and has to visit back and forth.
It really is a beautiful little story about a family that spans decades and countries. It is somewhat of an immigration story.
The children thought this was a little interesting, but they weren’t into it too much. They travel a lot from state to state at times seeing family and to them traveling is no big deal. The nephew gave this 2 stars and the niece gave this 3 stars.
