JENNY KIMURA

Jenny Kimura Smith, a sixteen-year-old of Japanese-American parentage, lies from Tokyo to the United States to visit her paternal grandmother whom she has never met. Her visit to Kansas City and Cape Cod compares life in America with her ome in Japan and brings out the similarities between people and attitudes as well as the distinctions between the two cultures. This story of a sensitive young girl and a memorable summer is written with emotional insight by the well-known author of books for teen-agers.
