Outrun the Moon

(3) YA In 1906 San Francisco, Mercy, daughter of Chinese immigrants, finagles her way into a fancy girls' school. But St. Clare's is no academic haven, and the white students are far from welcoming. Still, when the earthquake strikes, it's Mercy who brings everyone--including students, immigrants, and refugees--together for survival. Rich with historical detail, the setting is as compelling as Mercy herself.
