Chinese Cinderella: The Secret Story of an Unwanted Daughter
6 journalers for this copy...
I remember really liking this so I'm going to give it a re-read before i release it.
I loved this book. Such a sad story. It's really sad to think people treat children like that :( Found out some bits about China's history which I didn't know before. Apprently there is a more adult verison of this book called 'Falling Leaves' I hope to read it soon :)
I'm saving this book to release at the next London MCM Expo. Which takes place at in the London Excel centre, in Oct and May. I have a feeling I won't get to go to the Oct one so will save it for may :)

This is an sad, but amazing story of a childhood in China, full of emotional abuse and neglect - but with a happy, promising end. It's heart-wrenching, but a good read, with a bit of background information about Chinese history. A great example for (psychological) resilience.

It will go on to another friend as soon as I have finished it.
ETA: No, just not the right kind of story for me after all.
