INTERMEDIATE FICTION
Cheng, Andrea

Honeysuckle House

(2) 4-6 When Chinese-American Sarah's fourth-grade teacher assigns her to befriend Tina, newly arrived from China, Sarah resents the assumption that a similar heritage will make them friends. Indeed, the girls' alternating narratives dramatize how different their concerns are. Equally strong as a story of friendship, of three contrasting families, and of the immigrant experience.
