Throwaway Daughter
by Ting-Xing Ye (with William Bell)
Grace Parker has always resisted her Chinese roots. Adopted by a Canadian family after she was abandoned at a Chinese orphanage, she doesn't like being reminded of her past. But after seeing televised images of the Tianamen Square massacre, she starts to reconsider her heritage and eventually goes on a journey to find her birth parents.
Told by Grace, her mother, her parents, and Mrs. Xia, who worked at the orphanage, this is a moving, powerful story of cruelty and courage.
