[|North Korea] || "Twentieth Century." __Life in Korea__. 12 May 2010 __<__[] > "North Korea Under the Japanese Rule" __ita.__ 12 May 2010 <[]> "Korea Under Japanese Rule" __BookRags.__ 12 May 2010 [] "North Korea Under Japanese Rule" PPT. 12 May 2010 [] || Sookan is a young girl from korea.She has been through many hardships and has had many enemies.Some of her enemys include Captain Narita,a harsh Japanese officer,who takes away many of Sookans friends such as the sock girls.Also she has faced many loss and hardships.Such as losing her brothers and father.Also her grandfather died.She also had friends though.Such as the sock girls,and Uhnie who helped her through Japenese school.If she were to have any friend from any book i think it would be Maniac Magee. My reasoning for this is that they both lived in poverty.Also they both have very little friends,and don't really fit in at their school.Also at one point in the story Sookan is on the run,where as Maniac is always on the run because he doesnt fit in with most poeple.The last thing they have in common is that in the end they both have a suitable place to stay and live. || **// Summary: My thoughts on this book is that it is a good book for teens and pre-teens.It is a really good story about family,courage,love and tradition. This book was by far one of the greatest books I have ever read.It really got my attention how close the family was,and how much they loved eachother.But the book wasn't all were to Koreans.They were just there to take all the resources from Korea.In the book the Japanese are really mean to Sookans family.All in all this book is a great book with a really good ending,I suggest this book to everyone who hasnt read it //** ||
