Still voting for this book as a good one.
Added tags too.
For a younger audience (think young primary school as compared to the mature novels listed above), try Baseball Saved Us by Ken Mochizuki. It’s about a young boy that gets moved to a Japanese internment camp in the states because of the irrational fear from Pearl Harbour. It’s a plainly written picture book that carries deeper meanings as well with how the protagonist’s father tries addressing the situation. It’s a bittersweet book about how all the adults attempt to keep their kids happy by getting introducing baseball.

Many of the WW2 books I end up finding usually take place in the main European conflict, so this is a slight change dealing with the fallout instead

The Miss Peregrine’s home for Peculiar Children books are set in 1943. The war is mentioned some, though it’s not really a major plot. The series is more fantasy.
