THis writer is a wonderful story teller of her life..lets face it,two kinds of authors, the kind that make you feel you are "right there" as they describe their childhood, then teen years, etc. and you cant hardly put it down, and there are writers that ought not to publish their autobiographies, due to lack of talent. These people came over to Denver, from China, and I have loved reading about her life..especially when as a 7 or 8 yr old, she tells about starting to ride the bus and "go to church"..for "Bible hour", loved it so much, she obtained permission from her mother to also attend on Sundays.She memorizes the names of the Books of the New testament, and songs and scriptures, but, at home she sees her mother doing her devotion to another "god" maybe bhudda..well, I can assure you this is a very very good book! I have ran out of space in my home for more books to collect, or I would keep this to read in a few years again, but being I am 65, those years might not be mine to have, hence I am trading it for someone else to enjoy :)
