By: Graham Salisbury“A gripping saga of wartime survival.” —Kirkus Reviews, Starred
Based on a true story, this World War II novel by Scott O’Dell Award winner Graham Salisbury tells how Zenji, 17, is sent from Hawaii to the Philippines to spy on the Japanese.
Zenji Watanabe was born in Hawaii. He’s an American, but the Japanese wouldn’t know it by the look of him. And that’s exactly what the US government is counting on.
Because he speaks both English and Japanese perfectly, the army recruits Zenji for a top-secret mission to spy on the Japanese. If they discover his true identity, he’ll be treated as a traitor and executed on the spot.
As World War II boils over in the Pacific, Zenji is caught behind enemy lines. But even though his Japanese heritage is his death warrant, it’s also his key to outwitting the enemy and finding the strength to face the terrors of battle, the savagery of the jungle, and the unspeakable cruelty of war.
The riveting Hunt for the Bamboo Rat is based on a true story and follows in the path of author Graham Salisbury’s other highly acclaimed Prisoners of the Empire titles, which began with the award-winning Under the Blood-Red Sun.
Finalist for:
Nebraska Golden Sower Award
South Carolina Book Awards

High Quality and Smells Great!
This is so far superior to the standard soaps that you buy off the shelf in a supermarket. It creates a truly luxurious lather and smells fantastic without being obnoxious or perfume.

Best vanilla body wash I've seen
Proper vanilla scent with a kick, without the vomit inducing synthetic aftertaste

Soap bar
Style: Vintage Suede, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
A solid exfoliating bar that gives you a deep clean without being too harsh. The grit is just enough to remove dead skin and smooth things out, while the Vintage Suede scent adds a warm, slightly masculine fragrance that feels elevated but not overpowering. It lathers well and leaves your skin feeling clean—not stripped.
✔ Gentle exfoliation (not too rough)
✔ Warm, clean scent
✔ Good lather + smooth finish
❗ Can feel slightly drying on very sensitive skin
❗ Scent doesn’t last super long
👉 Bottom line: A great everyday exfoliating soap perfect if you want smoother skin and a clean, subtle scent without anything too harsh.

Another great product from Cremo!
Style: Vintage Suede, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I find myself buying from this brand frequently. It started with the body wash, then a shaving razor and now this product. Everything i buy from Cremo is absolutely miles ahead of national brands.
When I saw this ant it was available in Vintage Suede scent, I had to buy it. Again, I was blown away by the quality of this product. It provides a rich, luxurious lather that cleans all of your troubles away. It's smooth and feels good. This has changed my morning shower into Shower 2.0.
I also love that this is a minority owned business. I know that when I buy from them, the money goes to support real people, not some corporate fat-cat.
Anyway, every Cremo product I have tried so far has been nothing short of amazing, and this is no exception. I will continue looking for more of their products I dont know about and trying those as well.
Thanks Cremo! You knocked it off of the reservation again with this product!

Scrubby
Style: Italian Bergamot, Size: 5 Ounce (Pack of 1)
I love that the pieces in it feel almost like it's exfoliating. It lathers well, and my skin feels clean after. The smell doesn't cling or feel cheap, it's a well rounded shuttle fragrance. Although my skin loves it, my daughter says her skin gets aittle dried out but she puts lotion in and it's fine. I have been buying this for months now, and encourage you to give this a try. Would also make a great addition to a gift basket.
