Donated by Sachiko Tanaka
Sachiko Tanaka (16), a student of the advanced course of Yasuda Girls High School, was exposed to the bombing, while studying at home in Hirano-machi.
She lost consciousness. When she came to herself, she found herself crouching under the desk with this Kojirin in her arms.
Continuing to yell out for help with her head sticking out from the roof of the collapsed home, she was pulled out together with the dictionary.
