By: Gloria Whelan
Mai, a thirteen-year-old girl. When the police threaten to take Mai’s grandmother away because her skills as a traditional healer anger them, Mai’s family chooses to escape from Vietnam to Hong Kong. During the journey the boat springs a leak, many passengers get sick, and food and water are in short supply. Then Quage had died then shortly the boat found Lio who was a fisherman attact from pirates. In Hong Kong, some of the passengers are sent to live in a warehouse while others are sent back to
Vietnam. Just when things are worst, Mai’s family and two of their friends learn that they will be allowed to go to America.
They say that Good things come to those who wait, and I’m sure it’s true. If you have the patience to wait for a long time, eventually something good will come to you.For example, Mia waited and suffured through so many tragities and heartfelts but at the end she able to go to America with her two friends and her family. She had to go through so many chaleges witch could of lead to horible tradagies or even worse. Then proven fact that true things come when you wait for example hthat if you gave kids a cookie or said if you wait tommrorro you will get 2 most kids would choose right away as kindagartens and when they didnt choose right waya they got 2 cookies.
The next theme would be based as excited to go but sad to leave is the next thieme because they were sad to leasve. Thenthey are able to go and that madfe them excited to go but endening up being bad because they had to go to wharehouse where they spent most time sleeping most of the time. THen paid off to go to America with her family and two of her close friends. It took a while to get their but they endening up excited at the end.Thwn they whent to leave behind their life an dvillage wich they grew upp their whole lifes to leave behind to begin a new.
