Naomi's Road tells the story of Naomi Nakane--a little girl with "black hair and lovely Japanese eyes and a face like a valentine"--And her Japanese-Canadian family during the 1940s, when Canada was at war with Japan. We folllow Naomi and her older brother Stepeh from their home in Vancouver to an interment camp in the interior of British Columbia, and then to a farm in Albert, seeing the effect of war through the eyes of a child growing up with the hardship and prejudice. Yet Naomi's adventures lead her to see the world with hope and understanding.
"In the 1940s Canada was at war with Japan; this is a story about the hardships of the Japanese-Canadians during this time, seen through the eyes of a young girl living in Vancouver."
"Minority."
