This book touched my heart. I absolutely loved it!
Just a shout out to everyone:SHOULD I READ THIS BOOK?!?!?!?!?!?
this book was so depressing, but i liked it. i felt so bad for Sumiko and her family.
Weedfloweer, was a okay book, the setting was great and had a lot of detail. The characters weren't that well explained, but the story was good. The beginning is good, the middle is sort of boring it just drains on and on, but get through it because the ending is worth it. Good luck reading, it wasn't one of my favorites, but it might be one of yours. It has a lot of history... GOOD LUCK!!!
It was off the charts. OMG! It was the best book i have read since The tales of Desperaux. Man, that book was my favorite. I especially loved the part in Weedflower when she befriends the boy! This book is one of the best. It should get lots of rewards!!@! Yesiree
This book was great. If you like books that are not that sad, but still have that sad feeling. If you need a good book pick this up.
Weedflower depicts the life of a young Japanese-American girl who has to leave her flower farm to live in an internment camp. She befriends a Native American who lives nearby.
This book was totally awesome and it should get a gold book award if that is a real thing.
I liked this book but it would be better if Frank and Sumiko kissed and ran away together.
This book is so good. I love it.
Although, I wished Frank and Sumiko could of at least kissed. I loved reading the sections with Frank and Sumiko in it together. I think they would be a good couple.
