Summary: It is crazy to love China in midwest small town
Review: A heartfelt touching memoir of growing up chinese in an all white community during the McCarthy years of the 1950's. Ching , the heroine wants to be one hundred percent all white American girl and go to the senior prom. No invites from white boys; enter
Bingo Tang, son of St. Paul ganglord who fills her imagination with returning to China. She will lose face if she doesn't marry
mother's choice, a rich restaurant owner from Chicago. What she decides may surprise the reader. Good for giving teenagers a look
at being "non" white in a small midwest town.

Summary: Great book on growing up as a Chinese American in the USA
Review: Good reading for anyone interested in learning about the Chinese American experience growing up in the USA. It gives you insight and a perspective from a minority viewpoint as well as a child living in the society of the majority. It is written from both the heart and the mind with much verisimilitude. I highly recommend it!
