An important and often heartbreaking story of immigration and struggling to fit in. The emotions were so potent that I sometimes found it difficult to read, but I found the hopeful ending to be a welcome relief. This is a great firsthand account of just how difficult it can be when coming to America, especially when you don't know English.
