About The Book
This compelling story is based upon actual facts. Sadako was a Japanese girl who lived in Hiroshima during the Second World War. She was a baby when American President Truman made a controversial decision to drop an atomic bomb on this city. Several years later, it is discovered that she has leukemia. While in the hospital, her best friend, Chizuko brings her a golden paper crane and tells her the legend of the crane: if a sick person makes a thousand paper cranes, the gods will help that person become well again.
