Publisher's Synopsis
It's 1945, the final year of World War II. Yukie Kimura is eight years old, she lives on a tiny island with a lighthouse in the north of Japan with her family, and she knows that the fighting that once felt so far away is getting closer. Then, it happens. One Sunday, bombs are dropped. The war ends soon after that. Everyone tells Yukie there's nothing to be scared of anymore, but she's not so sure. So she watches and she waits - until a miraculous sight finally allows her to be a kid again.
