Arriving in America, the so-called beautiful country, Anna, a young Taiwanese girl, finds it anything but beautiful as she and her family struggle to make a place for themselves in this world and learn the true meaning of home
Anna's family is moving from Taiwan to California in America, the beautiful country. But it is nothing like what she imagined: their one-bedroom apartment is tiny. At school she is taunted for the food she brings. The restaurant her parents sunk their entire savings into is losing money. What does it truly mean for a place to become home? -- adapted from jacket
