The book we’re reading
Adeline Yen Mah is born into a wealthy 1940s Chinese family but marked as bad luck after her mother dies giving birth to her. Rejected at home — above all by her cold stepmother, Niang — she finds love only in her Aunt Baba and grandfather, and throws herself into school, hoping that success might finally win her father's approval. Told in her own honest, unforgettable voice, it's a true real-life Cinderella about cruelty, courage and the power of education.
