Had to read this for class. Despite it being required, I actually enjoyed it. Slightly depressing, but it gives you a real glimpse of what some people go through to get a better life.

Children of the River LaurelLeaf Contemporary Fiction Linda Crew Books Reviews

This story describes a young girl's coming to America and her discovery of how her past shapes her future. Inspirational.

I read this book with my nephew for an honors English summer assignment. I learned alot about Cambodia and Viet Nam even though I'm old enough that I was a young adult when all that actually happened. I guess I didn't pay enough attention when all that was going on. I'm really glad I helped with this summer assignment. The story is told through the eyes of a Cambodian teeenage girl fleeing her homeland and coming to live in America. Though I enjoyed it my nephew struggled with it. If the main character had been a boy the nephew would have liked the book more.
good service on time mailing plays good work well well well well well well well well well well well well
Required reading for 9th grade
I enjoyed reading this book. I read it for a class and really enjoyed the issues raised. It gave me a perspective about culture and maintaining customs in a new land without fully being able to. It also demonstrated the bravery of a young girl leaving her own family to help an aunt and living with the guilt that she's a failure to her family and ancestors. What she comes to learn is that love should never wait to be shown . I really enjoyed this book.
I read this reluctantly so I could discuss it with my daughter before she wrote her report on it. I was deeply moved and would recommend it readers of any age. Linda Crew pulls off the most envied feat of a fiction writer, convincing you the story must be a first-hand experience, such is its verisimilitude.
