As a whole, Beautiful Country deftly unveils the powerful myth of the American Dream. Though Wang does eventually become a powerful lawyer, it is in spite of America -- not because of it. This memoir is a must-read for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the challenges of living as an undocumented child in the U.S.

- I will advocate for free lunch and summer food programs through my local public school system and vote for school board candidates who share my views.
- I will call my legislators and urge them to create long-term, easier ways for young children of undocumented immigrants to achieve citizenship.
- I will continue to avoid fast fashion and invest in clothing and other goods made by people who are earning a living wage.
