Too young to escape : a Vietnamese girl waits to be reunited with her family
After the Vietnam War, a young girl is left behind in the care of her grandmother when the rest of her family flees the new communist regime by boat. Once settled in North America, her parents will send for her; but in the meantime, Van must work for her demanding aunt and uncle, who treat her like a servant. And she is forced to deal with the school bully, who is the son of a military policeman.
