Front Desk
I used to think being successful meant having enough to eat, but now that I was getting free lunch at school, I wondered if I should set my standards higher.
Ten year-old Mia Tang moved to the US for a better life, a freer life, but so far, it's a life where she runs the front desk of a motel while her parents clean rooms. And she's not even allowed to use the swimming pool.
Inspired by author Kelly Yang's real-life experience immigrating to America from China and running a motel with her parents, this powerful novel explores how one girl overcomes language barriers, discrimination and her own lack of confidence to find her voice - and use it to make a difference.
