Double Luck: Memoirs of a Chinese Orphan

212 pp. | Holiday | May, 2001 | Trade ISBN 0-8234-1560-0 $$18.95
(3) 4-6 Born in 1941, the author tells about his childhood in China and his immigration to the United States in 1969. While the book includes the political and social turmoil of those years, the focus is on the engaging personal story of an orphan who experienced only interludes of kindness and prevailed against great odds. A time line gives context.
Reviewer: Frieda F. Bostian
