A Place to Belong

A Place to Belong by Cynthia Kadohata
My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This story is hauntingly beautiful. I can’t get it out of my head. It is a story of prejudice, war, culture, poverty, compassion, and mostly family. It will be one of my all-time favorite books, I am sure. I love this author.

Favorite Quotation

“I don't want to drive up to the pearly gates in a shiny sports car, wearing beautifully, tailored clothes, my hair expertly coiffed, and with long, perfectly manicured fingernails. I want to drive up in a station wagon that has mud on the wheels from taking kids to scout camp. I want to be there with a smudge of peanut butter on my shirt from making sandwiches for a sick neighbors children. I want to be there with a little dirt under my fingernails from helping to weed someone's garden. I want to be there with children's sticky kisses on my cheeks and the tears of a friend on my shoulder. I want the Lord to know I was really here and that I really lived.” ― Marjorie Pay Hinckley
