Summary

Born in Hiroshima in 1943, Sadako was the star of her school’s running team, until the dizzy spells started and she was forced to face the hardest race of her life—the race against time.

Author Biography

Eleanor Coerr first heard Sadako's story when she lived in Japan many years ago. When she discovered that Sadako's letters had been published in a book called Kokeshi, Ms. Coerr decided to write a book about the brave Japanese girl for American children. Ms. Coerr lives in Pebble Beach, California.
