I admire Sookan's spirit and determination. No matter what the problem is, she finds a way to make it through tough times. Even when others would run away screaming she sucks it out. Also, she has to protect her little brother throughout the whole story. You get hooked on the story wondering what happens next, or will they get caught? She's also not afraid to stand up for what she belives in, like when a boy at school that gave a speech about how much he hatted the Japanese.

Overall, this is an awsome book I definitly recommend. || Maher, Bill. "Mind of Monticello". CNN. 13 May 2010 []
