(3) 4-6 Nine-year-old Binh lives with her family in Vietnam. Her aunt Thao, a child of 1975's Operation Babylift, is returning to Vietnam for the first time. Marsden's story perceptively and sensitively explores the complex emotions surrounding the visit, which is not exactly what Binh, her extended family, or Thao herself expected. Glos.
