1) I think that Yoko is a really sweet person. In some parts of the book she is sort of scared of the patients that are badly hurt but she helps them anyway because she knows that its the right thing to do. It was really nice of her when she shared her food with the woman and the baby, even when Ko told her not to. Yoko is not used to living the way she does now, and she is complaining about a lot of things, but I think that if any of us were going throgh what Yoko was going through we would probobly be complaininig to.2) I think that Ko is being bossy because she feels like she has to be in charge since her father and brother aren't around and her mother has a lot on her mind, Ko just wants to keep her family safe. I think that Ko can be bossy, but also honorable since she is taking a lot of responsibility. Yoko and Ko are very close and Yoko is freakig out because Ko has never yelled at her so much in her life, like when Ko helped Yoko with filling up the water canteens and stared yelling at her, telling her to not whine and hurry up.
3) Everything is new for the Kawashima family especially for Yoko, but they are really caring and genorous. Ko is great to the patiens talking to them and caring. Yoko wants to be like her older sister, and she tries her best. The train seemed like a place that I can't imagine being in, but the Kawashima family made it seem like they didn't mind.
