She's been waiting for this moment every day while she lived with her grandmother in Beijing getting teased by kids at school who called her ' left behind girl.' Finally her parents are ready for her to join their fabulous life in America! Except it's not exactly like in the postcards:1. School's a lot harder than she thought.When she mispronounces some words in English on the first day she decides she simply won't talk. Ever again.2. Her chatty little sister has no problem with English. And seems to do everything better than Lina including knowing exactly the way to her parents' hearts.3. They live in an apartment not a house like in Mom's letters and they owe a lot of back rent from the pandemic.And Mom's plan to pay it back sounds more like a hobby than a moneymaker.As she reckons with her hurt Lina tries to keep a lid on her feelings both at home and at school. When her teacher starts facing challenges for her latest book selection a book that deeply resonates with Lina it will take all of Lina's courage and resilience to get over her fear in order to choose a future where she's finally seen.
