This book should still be published today.  Maybe be giving new illustrations as modern libraries would not a low a naked woman’s nipple to be on the cover of a book in the children’s department.  This is the true story of a little girl and her mother on the day of and days after the dropping of the bomb on Hiroshima.  This story is bold, this story is powerful.  This story is heartbreaking, and should still be in libraries, so children can learn not to repeat the mistakes of the past.
