THE FIRST CHILDREN' S PICTURE BOOK BIOGRAPHY of Iris Chang (1968- 2004), the fearless Chinese American historian who revealed the truth about the Nanjing Massacre. Growing up in Illinois, young Iris loved books and asking big questions. When she learned about the Nanjing Massacre-- a horrific World War II atrocity that had been forgotten-- she made a brave choice: she would give voice to the victims. Armed with a typewriter and relentless courage, she traveled to China, uncovered lost archives, and published The Rape of Nanking. Her book became an international bestseller and changed how the world understood WWII in Asia. This authorized biography (endorsed by Iris's mother, Professor Ying-Ying Chang) shows young readers how one person's voice can change history.
