Synopsis
A picture-book version of a longer story told in the author's book "Sadako and the Thousand Paper Cranes". Sadako Sasaki was a young girl when she died of leukemia, a direct result of radiation poising from the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. Japanese legend says that if an ill person folds 1,000 cranes out of paper, the gods will make that person well again. Desperately ill, Sadako attempted to make 1,000 cranes, but died before she was able to complete the task. She ultimately became a symbol for peace, and even today, children all over the world send paper cranes and their own prayers for world peace to Japan in honor of Sadako. Illustrated with pastel artwork.
Hospitalized with the dreaded atom bomb disease, leukemia, a child in Hiroshima races against time to fold one thousand paper cranes to verify the legend that by doing so a sick person will become healthy.
