Beautiful Country
by Qian Julie Wang
Amazing account of immigration from China to the US (and eventually Canada) told from the perspective of a toddler/preschool aged child’s experience. The fear and hardships are heartbreaking- they worked so hard to just survive. Ultimately their many years of hard work pays off, but why must it be so hard? This was a family of highly intelligent and gifted people that were forced to work at menial labor jobs and dreadful environments to survive until they could, after a decade of amazingly hard work and sacrifice, get documented and find their way to Canada.
