最近几周来,我又对我的故事I am Mei Ling进行了修改,过几天再更新,将修改心得贴上来,下面是我女儿从前的老师Miss Schudel给I am Mei Ling写的Recommendation letter。
To whom it may concern:
I have had the pleasure of reading the series of rhyming stories, I am Mei Ling, several times. Each time I've been touched by the lives of Mei Ling and her family, and their experience as a newly-arrived immigrant family to Canada from China. Their experiences and the style of writing make the book a wonderful read.
As a public school teacher who is specialized in Reading, I am familiar with many books, with several different genres, topics, and themes. I am unaware of any books in our school or public library that deal with the lives of new Chinese immigrants to Canada. I believe that this is an important topic, considering the large amount of Chinese immigrants in our school, and in our school board as a whole. Many students would be able to identify with the main character, Mei Ling, and all others would recognize her experiences as those of friends in their class.
I think that I am Mei Ling is an interesting, informative, and touching story that would be valuable reading material for all children, both immigrant and North American-born.
Sincerely,
