Reviews: Impressive historical novel. Partridge proves her keen understanding of young people and her ability to write engrossing fiction grounded in the history she usually illuminates in nonfiction., The entirely secular explanation of death and the fact that there is no substitution pet added to the family in the end make this a very worthwhile addition to bibliotheraputic literature for the young. Item Length: 7.9 in Language: English Original Language: English Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA Synopsis: From an award-winning author comes the moving story of a Vietnamese American girl struggling to reconcile her past with her present., Half Vietnamese, half American, Tracy's not sure she fits in with her family in California. But when she and her best friend find a soldier's dogtag, she is jarred by memories from her life in Vietnam, and the lingering anti-war sentiments that surround her today. Where is home when you're a child of war? Is it the country that's buried deep within your memories? Or is it the place you live, among the people you call family?
