reflection2

The sister in the story is the least fav child of the grandma, Granma always calls her no use(moyong) in the story. its very true since in china a lot of people like boys better then girls. the old grandparents are almost crazy about this. Poh-Poh also try's to teach the children in the old ways that they where rised.

The first reflection

       The novel I choose to read is "The Jade Peony" by Wayson Choy. I chose to read this book because it tells a story about a chinese immigrant family's story in Chinatown, vancouver in the 30s and 40s. I want to learn how where the immigrants treated differently then today and how where their life's at the time. My inquiry questions would be about how where immigrants treated different and unfairly at the time.
