Book Description
Mona dislikes change. And with a recent move across the country and the prospect of new friends at a new school-seventh grade doesn't sound promising. In fact, she's determined not to go at all. Mona begins to dream, hope, and wish for a way out. She's grown up hearing stories of fairy tales and magical worlds-of beanstalks and transportable wardrobes-but do they really exist? When she stumbles upon a strange seed and determines to plant it, hopeful it might grow into her means of escape, she realizes she may have planted more than she bargained for. The Wishing Seed is a coming-of-age tale about two sisters, new friendships, love, and forgiveness-all the while exploring what it means to bear good fruit. With just a little wish, trust, and silver dust, will Mona find what she's looking for? Or will her secrets ruin everything she's planned?

Marty doesn't have much—unlike his mom, who seems to hold on to everything. Life at home is tough, but Marty finds sanctuary down at the community garden with his eccentric grandad. On Marty's birthday, Grandad gifts him a seed. "There’s magic in seeds, you know. You can never tell what wonders are in them." As it turns out, Grandad has a rather wonderful plan up his sleeve.

The Cooked Seed
Author: Anchee Min
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing USA
ISBN: 1608194248
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 369
Book Description
In 1994, Anchee Min made her literary debut with a memoir of growing up in China during the violent trauma of the Cultural Revolution. Red Azalea became an international bestseller and propelled her career as a successful, critically acclaimed author. Twenty years later, Min returns to the story of her own life to give us the next chapter, an immigrant story that takes her from the shocking deprivations of her homeland to the sudden bounty of the promised land of America, without language, money, or a clear path. It is a hard and lonely road. She teaches herself English by watching Sesame Street, keeps herself afloat working five jobs at once, lives in unheated rooms, suffers rape, collapses from exhaustion, marries poorly and divorces.But she also gives birth to her daughter, Lauryann, who will inspire her and finally root her in her new country. Min's eventual successes-her writing career, a daughter at Stanford, a second husband she loves-are remarkable, but it is her struggle throughout toward genuine selfhood that elevates this dramatic, classic immigrant story to something powerfully universal.
