I thought it was awesome but sad at the same time. I still can't believe her stepmum was so cruel. I would recommend it to anyone.

This is quite a sad story about the author from the age of 4 to 14. Parts of the story makes you want to cry, while other parts made you want to yell (or hit) some of the characters (especaily Niang). I picked this book for a English project (which this review is the ending part). Though the book was sad, I felt that the book ended in a high note. This book makes you think about how lucky life in this day and age.
