**Winner of the 2015 Gelett Burgess Award for Best Intercultural Book** **Winner of the 2015 Silver Evergreen Medal for World Peace** This true children's story is told by a little bonsai tree, called Miyajima, that lived with the same family in the Japanese city of Hiroshima for more than 300 years before being donated to the National Arboretum in Washington DC in 1976 as a gesture of friendship between America and Japan to celebrate the American Bicentennial. From the Book: "In 1625, when Japan was a land of samurai and castles, I was a tiny pine seedling. A man called Itaro Yamaki picked me from the forest where I grew and took me home with him. For more than three hundred years, generations of the Yamaki family trimmed and pruned me into a beautiful bonsai tree. In 1945, our household survived the atomic bombing of Hiroshima. In 1976, I was donated to the National Arboretum in Washington D.C., where I still live today--the oldest and perhaps the wisest tree in the bonsai museum."

My life and times have taken many twist and turns. When I was in grade school, at Twelfth Street School, I thought I was going to be a piano player after taking lessons because we had to piano at home for me to practice that did not last long. In junior high school at Robert Fulton Junior High, I fell in love with playing the drums and really got good at it. My mom broke down and purchased me a set of drums and even got to our community’s great drummers to teach me. Victor Sword was jazz drummer, and Vic Pitts was a drummer with the Seven Sounds R&B group. I learned so much from them and thought I would play in a band one day. In junior high I also fell in love with design and drafting in ...
