Along the Same Street

A Japanese boy’s first encounter with an American teacher is terrifying. Fortunately, it won’t be his last.

Eventually, Kenta will have to decide how far the “street” he lives along extends into the world. He’ll have to reconcile his love home and family with his grandfather’s lingering emotions from an almost forgotten war.

Told from Kenta’s point-of-view, in an earnest and guileless voice, this intercultural coming-of-age story provides a refreshing perspective on personal relationships spanning the Pacific.
