Red Scarf Girl: A Memoir of the Cultural Revolution
FROM SARAH:
The true story of Ji-li Jiang, who grew up in China under communist revolutionary Mao Zedong. Be ready for some conversations after this one! I recommend it for teens.
FROM THE PUBLISHER:
It's 1966, and twelve-year-old Ji-li Jiang has everything a girl could want: brains, popularity, and a bright future in Communist China. But it's also the year that China's leader, Mao Ze-dong, launches the Cultural Revolution—and Ji-li's world begins to fall apart... a breathtaking true story your teens won't soon forget.
