The story of Sadako is about a teenage girl that lives in Japan.  When she was a baby, the atomic bomb was dropped on Japan, and she got some of the radiation poisoning.  She was a runner, and when she runs, she starts to get dizzy.  But she never told anyone.  She ended up in a hospital diagnosed with leukemia.  She was told that if she made 1,000 paper cranes, the gods would cure her of her sickness.

In this project, I had to make five paper cranes.  The project was inspired by Sadako and her paper cranes.  I made three purple cranes and two white.
