These are actual photos from the "Peace Park" mentioned in our book. I hope these give you some real images to have in your mind of what Sadako experienced on Peace Day (chapter 2). Pardon my excitement, I just think it is neat to have a real image in my mind of what Sadako experienced.
This is the statue of a young girl holding a "paper" crane. It is believed to be the image of
Sadako Sasaki.

I like this one. If you look on page17 in your book. You will see Sadako and Chizuko running in to the Peace Park. See the building and fountains?
You can read these lines on page 18 "After speeches by Buddhist priests and the mayor, hundreds of white doves were freed from their cages. They circled the twisted, scarred Atomic Dome." - This is the sight Sadako saw and she looked up at THIS building!
