The Lovereading comment:

This absorbing and exciting adventure story is framed by both the author's real-life story and the reality of World War II in Shanghai. Chinese Cinderella has left the home of her cruel stepmother and must seek her own destiny. She meets up with a group of orphans who live with Grandma Wu.


About The Author

Adeline Yen Mah was born in Tianjin, China. Her mother died two weeks after her birth and Adeline was considered to be a source of bad luck by her family.
Her father remarried a beautiful Eurasian woman one year later. She was half French and half Chinese and divided the Yen family into two different classes. Adeline's father, stepmother and their two children were the upper class, whereas Adeline and the four other step-children by the first wife were considered second class. ~ from Adeline Yen Mah's publisher
