Warriors in the Crossfire

“This brief and powerful story will help to keep alive the memory of indigenous families caught in the crossfire between the Japanese and American armies. . . . This volume stand[s] out. (historical note, further reading)” —Kirkus Reviews

* “Intense and powerful reading that avoids bleakness by celebrating family, culture, and a longing for peace.” —Booklist, starred review

“Because this is a topic not often covered in young adult literature, this will be an excellent addition to historical fiction collections.” —Library Media Connection

“Joseph is an engaging and three-dimensional character. . . . A useful endnote separates fact from fiction. A unique and important addition to World War II fiction.” —School Library Journal
