Based on the author's real experiences this book tells of an immigrant family's struggle to get off the roller coaster. They manage a hotel but are taken advantage of by the owner. Through it all though Mia refuses to give up. Through persistence, letter writing, and friendship she overcomes many hurdles including eventually helping her parents buy the motel.
This was the quickest I have read a book in awhile (okay I read Strongheart very quickly too). It was very good and will open up an avenue for many conversations.
