By any standard and all expectations, James leads a typical Southern California middle class upbringing. AYSO soccer, a treehouse, best friends, a first love, and then off to college. But what happens when things unexpectedly fall apart? What happens when the security and hope of a quiet and satisfying childhood is upended with death, drugs and bad relationships? This is James’ story. A story about falling down, getting back up and then falling down even further. Set in the 90’s and early 2000’s, this story takes place in a time before social media, smartphones and all that comes with the world we know today. This is a story based on social interactions and a life that is led outside, a life not set behind screens and status updates. Blue Door, Red Bowl tells the story of a man trying to make things right, a story about a life with its challenges but ultimately, a life worth living.

It's 1942: Tomi Itano, 12, is a second-generation Japanese American who lives in California with her family on their strawberry farm. Although her parents came from Japan and her grandparents still live there, Tomi considers herself an American. She doesn't speak Japanese and has never been to Japan. But after the Japanese attack on Pearl Harbor, things change. No Japs Allowed signs hang in store windows and Tomi's family is ostracized. Things get much worse. Suspected as a spy, Tomi's father is taken away. The rest of the Itano family is sent to an internment camp in Colorado. Many other Japanese American families face a similar fate. Tomi becomes bitter, wondering how her country could treat her and her family like the enemy. What does she need to do to prove she is an honorable American? Sandra Dallas shines a light on a dark period of American history in this story of a young Japanese American girl caught up in the prejudices and World War II.
