This is a story of love between four immigrations families. There are four Chinese women and their four American daughters have been written on this book. The book has talked about the different behavior and thinking way between the four Chinese mothers and their American daughters. Each individual story in this book is enough with different language and different culture. This book is good at separating the whole book with each individual little story that is very helpful for me to be concentrating. When I was reading the book, I was interesting at reading very small stories. From reading the whole book, I spent a lot of time on fingering out who is the mother and this girl is whose daughter. And also I spent a lot of time on reading the mothers’ experiences from their previous time and American time. From this book, I see how each Chinese woman come to America with difficulties and how they faced the difficulties and trading their new life. This book talked a lot about women and their daughters, I heard many people said this is a woman book, but I think this book is good for everyone because it could tell us what are love and the relationship between parents and children. This book is a very good choice for everyone to read and learn the experiences of dealing with the relationship of parents and children from the four Chinese women and their American daughters. This is a book used four Chinese women as the example of how Chinese people raised their own country by personally during the war and also using their whole life to teach their daughters to do so.Read full review
