Doll of Hope

Utilizing the 3 branches of my IDS focus (English, Education and History), I have written and illustrated a children’s book titled “Doll of Hope.” This is a tale about two little girls attending the Japanese Immersion School in Eugene. While playing ‘dress-up,’ the girls find a beautiful doll. They discover she is a missing ‘Friendship Doll.’ much of the book is based on the history of two dolls, Miss Kanagawa, and Miss Fukuoka, who were given to Oregon in 1927. A festival highlights their reunion!
