I only started fully appreciating my heritage in the last 5 or so years.  Being Chinese in an white American family in small town America, it was hard to be connected to heritage.  My parents made great efforts and I appreciate that, it's hard when no one around looks like you.  I learned so much from this book about myself, my heritage, and other Asians.  It fills me with great pride.
