In 1922, ten-year-old Gim Lew reluctantly leaves his village in China
to accompany his father to America, but before they go he must
prepare for a grueling test that he must pass--without stuttering--at
California's Angel Island, where strict officials strive to keep out
unwanted immigrants. Includes facts about immigration from China and
the experiences of the author's family.
