That\u2019s where we start with Waka in <a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/6843\/9780063017115\">WHILE I WAS AWAY,<\/a> Waka T. Brown\u2019s middle grade memoir, out Tuesday, 1\/26.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">While I Was Away is a lovely, quietly reflective story about walking in two cultures. About being a fish out of water who learns to swim. It offers readers a window in 1980s Japan (and Kansas) and what it is to live in a culture that\u2019s totally familiar yet views you as different.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">For Waka, there couldn\u2019t be a worse time to be separated from your friends and everything that\u2019s familiar. But the experience turns into an opportunity to learn more about her family, herself, and how both Japanese and American cultures shape her view of the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I loved that Brown included visual examples of shuuji, Japanese calligraphy, and explained a bit about kanji, hiragana, and how the language works.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">That said, this is 6th\/7th grade and it\u2019s not always pretty. There\u2019s teasing and bullying, having to choose between friend groups, and even an episode where her grandmother accuses her of lying and locks her out of the house. Waka is direct about sharing her thoughts and feelings about all of these things with the reader. You can see the lessons she\u2019s learned and how she\u2019ll walk through the world taking shape. And I loved that in the end, she reflects on the entire experience, rather than leaving it open ended.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">As an adult reader of Japanese descent, this memoir was filled with nostalgia \u2014 hearing Waka talk about collecting stickers and and sending letters on thin blue Airmail, being obsessed with pencils and erasers and cute stationery (that stays with you lifelong it turns out), but the details never make it feel like this is ancient history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\">I especially loved that this book illuminates another facet of the Japanese American experience, highlighting families who immigrated in the 70s and 80s and had American born kids.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><strong>Get WHILE I WAS AWAY from <a href=\"https:\/\/bookshop.org\/a\/6843\/9780063017115\">Bookshop.org<\/a> | <a href=\"https:\/\/www.indiebound.org\/book\/9780063017115?aff=dailywaffle\">IndieBound<\/a>|<a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3sV8DhS\">Amazon<\/a>| <a href=\"https:\/\/books.apple.com\/us\/book\/while-i-was-away\/id1510321529?itsct=books_toolbox&amp;itscg=30200&amp;at=1001lIr6&amp;ct=books_while_i_was_away&amp;ls=1\">Apple Books<\/a><\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"has-normal-font-size wp-block-paragraph\"><em>This post includes affiliate links which kick us a small percentage at no cost to you, if you use them to shop.
