This book is a collection of short stories that capture the voices and often painful experiences of immigrants and their children. Although the narrator and her family go through tough times and face culture shock, hardships, and sometimes homesickness, they manage to overcome all obstacles and try to make a life for themselves. The eleven stories are separated with plenty of extra activities but are still connected, and the events are narrated in chronological order.

This book is a series of stories written by the author basing on the real life. I really love this book because it touched my heart with personal experiences that author described. All of us or immigrants in general, we have to face difficult choices, new challenges, a new culture that we cope with. " Choice is sacrificed" but we have to do it. I chose this book for my home library to be a source of a great enjoyment. Now , for "the time for us", students here or international students who want to learn, work and spend American life. All of you can bring it with you on your journey.
