Book Description
What is it like for a kid to move to a foreign country? It is a journey of excitement and adventure because a whole new world is being born. But the journey has its pitfalls and fears. There are strange new words and behaviors that need to be learned. People think differently. Who is right? In "The Traveling Sketchbook", Anne and her brothers, Bob and Rickie, encounter all these things as they experience life in Japan. They need to make friends with their Japanese neighbors, attend international schools and ride trains long distances to go to school! Life provides a full measure of pain and joy: a typhoon, earthquakes, and death exist side-by-side with friendship and fun.
