Title: Not very kira-kira
Review: I've read many of the Newbery award books. I've loved them all-until Kira-Kira. It's the story of a poor Japanese family who move from Iowa to Georgia so their parents can work. The parents work all the time, and then, to make it worse, the narrator's sister, Lynn gets sick and dies. It's depressing and isn't helped by the fact that the narrator, Katie, is very uninteresting and flat. There are plenty more GOOD Newberys out there. Go get them instead. (Tale of Despereaux ROCKS!)
