A book about a dream coming true. From thinking, and connecting with the Vietnamese people in the US, to flying to Vietnam to make that dream a reality. I finished the book wishing it was longer that it is.

Powerful memoir that made me weep for my parents who are perfectly healthy and alive. This is a story of blood ties, childhood dreams, motherhood, and love that goes beyond death. A must-read!
