The story is a pretty nice little tale unless you want to take a feminist reading to it and complain about yet another helpless female who requires male assistance for happiness. I sort of really like the art itself but have some problems with the design of the book. The copyright page is the left hand page of the spread containing the first page on the right. I don't think I've been bothered by this before, but it's a rather abrupt and ugly start to a book and goes without a half title page as well. It could be that the smokey quality of the drawings with gentle lines and soft areas of smooth and silky pattered shade, especially when they are almost monotone, representing the lack of site before changing to color with the introduction of the seeing stick, contrasts unpleasantly with the blank white page and blandly informational text. The illustrations themselves use the edges of the pages beautifully to create a variety of interesting perspectives. However, some of the pages get an extra glossy sheen where some embossing has been added which is visually distracting from the style of the images. This technique was used in The Black Book of Colors and, to be honest, I didn't like it there either. I don't think that a very thin embossing can feel like a color or a picture to a blind person, although not being blind I would be happy to be proven wrong. It just seems that someone who could not see would inhabit the world in a sculptural way, the way Chris Van Allsburg's illustration s look and the carved stick in the story feels, not a flat coating. I also wonder about the visual symbols that we learn, such as how a house is represented, and if I blind person would be able to make the double translation from image to symbol to faintly textured representation of a symbol to 3D sculptural object. But enough of a rant about embossing- I should probably hang out with more textural interpreters before having such a strong negative reaction.

Although the short stories were initially published in Japanese, the compilation was only ever published in English. The authors are: Amy Yamada, Chiya Fujino, Shungiku Uchida, Tamaki Daido, Rio Shimamoto, Yuzuki Muroi, Junko Hasegawa, and Nobuko Takagi. Some stories were better than others, which is to be expected. The best part was that it introduced me to some amazing writers whose books i am just itching to read (Yamada being the first).

Interesting portrayal of the WWII time, and the new respect gained by leaders for Navajo language to keep enemy from intercepting messages. Contrast described for wartime vs having to hide use of Navajo language in the boarding schools children were sent to.

Another surprise! The author wrote in such a way that I kept waiting for the other shoe to fall, but never saw it coming. Love that!

A great book for young adults about how others are affected by war. Levi's brother, admired as a top student and athlete, joins the Marines and comes home deeply troubled. Levi tries to figure out how to grow up, help his brother, and decide which side of the war he's on. A rich and complex story that finds a positive but not perfect ending.

Overall this anthology was okay. I really only enjoyed two: The Unlikely Vampire and The Hunter & The Hunted. I wish those two had been longer in length. Then there were the complete misses: Sacrifice and Fire Can Make it Rain. Sacrifice seemed sort of silly to me and I didn't quite get the premise for Fire, it could have been better. The others weren't particularly memorable, I think Mayan Time could have been better if it were longer length and had more time to explain things.

There were definite moments when I was interested in this story, but by the last 100 pages I was ready to be done. There was a definite shift for me in the last stages of the story that should have been more interesting, but really made me wonder why we focused on a lot of things earlier in the book. Also, while the author can use imagery well, some of the description doesn't ring true. The author has talent, but her tone is a little more earnest and moody than I usually like. I prefer books that are a bit more lively, which doesn't mean this book is bad, but it's not my favorite style.
