OLDER FICTION
Pyle, Kevin C.

Take What You Can Carry

(2) YA A wordless story, rendered in sepia tones, follows a Japanese American boy's internment camp life. An alternating tale, in tones of blue, involves a boy who steals from, then works for, a store owner--the now-grown youth of the first story. A camp experience has given the man empathy for the boy's errant behavior, and his compassion leads the boy away from a path of juvenile delinquency.
