Life can be difficult, especially if you are from a different culture than all your peers. And for these ten authors, sharing their experience or a story they heard from others is very serious, other than the fact that they are comedic writers and are sharing the hilarious stories of going all-Asian to fit in and sitting in the waiting room with your Creo grandmother for four hours. Be prepared to laugh as these authors step up to the mic and share some truths about cultures.

 

Opinion: 

Ten authors have tried to shed true light on the subject of coming from a different culture than your peers. This is an amazing book that I read in one day. I would recommend it to all my friends. This book is for 12 years and up. If you ever want to know what it's like to live in America coming from a different culture, this is the book I suggest.
