This current page is comprehensive, however, it could be more comprehensive, For example, it could use a picture of Julie Otsuka. Also, the biography is little short. With some research the biography could become complete. Crhoene (talk) 23:28, 5 March 2015 (UTC)crhoene The lead is extremely brief, I would add this. Her books are known for calling attention to the plight of Japanese Americans throughout World War Two. She herself grew up in this era which givers Otsuka a unique and accurate depiction of the difficult life for Japanese Americans at this time. Crhoene (talk) 22:18, 13 March 2015 (UTC)crhoene

We need to add a section about her two books, When the Emperor was Divine and The Buddah in the Attic. Crhoene (talk) 21:06, 30 March 2015 (UTC)crhoene

 * Mother: The first section of the novel follows her perspective. She is calm and cool despite the drastic change in her life and ends up becoming the bread winner for her family after the internment camp.
 * Daughter: She is 11 years old with long black hair. Daughter is very inquisitive and can easily make friends with strangers.
 * Son: He is 8 years old and the one in the family who writes to their father the most. He also fantasizes about the supposed glory of his return more than other characters.
 * Father: He is put in an internment camp before the rest of the family. Upon return from the camp he is listless and unable to return to the life he had before.
