About the Book A Jar of Dreams

A Jar of Dreams by Yoshiko Uchida is an historical fiction novel set in 1930s California. The story follows eleven-year-old Rinko Tsujimura, a Japanese American girl growing up during the Great Depression, a time marked by significant prejudice and hardship.

Rinko’s life is filled with challenges, from dealing with racism in her community to struggling with her own identity. Her family’s financial struggles and the societal discrimination they face add to her burdens. However, the arrival of her Aunt Waka from Japan brings a new perspective and strength to Rinko’s life. Aunt Waka’s wisdom and encouragement help Rinko to embrace her heritage and find confidence in herself.

The novel explores themes of resilience, family, and self-acceptance. Rinko learns to navigate the complexities of her identity and the prejudice she faces, ultimately growing in confidence and self-worth. The supportive and loving environment created by her family, especially the influence of Aunt Waka, plays a crucial role in her personal growth.

Yoshiko Uchida’s storytelling is both heartfelt and insightful, capturing the struggles and triumphs of a young girl in a difficult era. The book offers a touching portrayal of the immigrant experience and the power of family bonds.

It takes a long time to gather all the data for our new book page format with more useful descriptions, themes, and activity ideas. Meanwhile, this page is active so you can order books; it just isn't quite as informative or graphically appealing as the new page will be. Thanks for understanding! :-)
