Sumo Wrestler
Plays Hero
He could pick up an opponent by his
mawashi belt and lift him out of the ring.
He was agile! He could dodge with his
big body, then, quick as lightning, thrust
his opponent beyond the dohyo. But
for all his strength, Cherry Blossom felt
powerless when an earthquake struck
his beloved country. The many faces
of strength, courage, love, loss, and
how this informs our actions in times of
adversity are at the center of the story
of a beautifully illustrated new book,
“Cherry Blossom” by Portland author and
preschool teacher Ruth Welsford. Cherry
Blossom is available at Amazon, Barnes
& Noble and other bookstores.
