Summary: After the bombing of Pearl Harbor, Tama is sent to live in a War Relocation Center in the desert. Trying not to think of the life she once had, she works in the camp's tiny library, taking solace in pages bursting with color and light, love and fairness. George waits each morning by the library door, his arms piled with books checked out the day before. And soon their friendship becomes a lifelong romance.
