Book of the week

The main character is Mei Mei. The problem is she just moved from Hong Kong to New York and Mei Mei hates English! Her family made her move to New York. She didn't want to move but she had to because she had to go to school. In school, kids only spoke English and she didn't. In Chinese, Mei Mei said to herself that she would not speak in school! One day, a new teacher, Miss Nancy, came to school, and she started to talk a lot. Mei Mei didn't like it. One day she got angry and said, "I've had it. From now on, I will speak English only when I feel like it!" What is Mei-Mei going to do? What do you think will happen?

Manuela : The character that I thought was interesting was Mei Mei because she was from a different culture. There was a person that changed. Yes, you guessed it. It was Mei-Mei. The way she changed was that she learned to love English! That was my favorite part.
