Оглавление

In memory of my grandmother, Maria Cheng, who was patient, gentle, strong,

and loving. Thanks to my parents, without whom this book would not

have been possible. They taught me Chinese and never let me forget my roots.

Thank you, Mother, for telling me these stories when I was a little girl.

Thank you, Father, for helping me with this book by sharing

your immense knowledge. I also thank Gary Sampson for all his help,

encouragement, and most all, his kind friendship. I miss you, my little Mozart.

I thank Gina Bergner too for buying so many copies of my first book and

for introducing me to young people who appreciated this book.

Thanks also to Diantha Thorpe, my first publisher, for having faith in me.

Thanks most of all to Elliot — wherever you are is home to me.
