Front Desk by Kelly Yang

OMG! I just loved this story. This is such a heart touching book. This is one of those stories that makes you happy that you got to read it. The book follows ten year old Mia and her family after they immigrated to the US from China. Mia's family is having a hard time getting settled and soon take a job at a hotel. It is so hard work that Mia takes on the job as desk manager while her parents clean all the rooms. The hotel is owned by a horrible man that starts deducting money from Mia's family for everything. I don't want to go into the story more as to not spoil it but this is a "Must Read"! I highly recommend it to kids of all ages.
