In the hands of acclaimed author Bette Bao Lord, who based this remarkable novel on her own experiences as a young immigrant, Shirley's story resonates with hope, poignancy, and that special mixture of humor and seriousness that characterizes a child's view of childhood.

Black-and-white illustrations by Caldecott Medalist Marc Simont are a wonderful addition to the text, capturing all the excitement and emotion within."/>
