Two Degrees takes readers back to December 1941, when best friends Frank and Stanley live in paradise on the Hawaiian island of Oahu. Their fathers are Navy officers stationed at Pearl Harbor, giving the boys a front‑row view of massive battleships and sparkling waters. On December 7th, the attack on Pearl Harbor erupts, shattering their world in an instant. As the day unfolds, the boys struggle to make their way home amid chaos and danger.
Stanley’s mother is Japanese American, and he suddenly confronts a prejudice he has never known, while Frank, who is white, cannot begin to understand the harsh new reality. Their friendship hangs in the balance as they face this watershed moment together.
Gratz sheds light on the increasingly urgent threat of climate change in an engaging way, and his writing is exciting, taking readers on a nonstop adventure.
