Aunt lin, and Ying had be sent to the Fuzhou countryside when they were teenagers to be laborers and they searched for the treasure there.

When they do find Lin, they have Ying to deal with. I would recommend this book to people who like adventure books. I really liked this book because it had a sibling team working together to find their aunt, and the adventure they go on is incredible. They go all around China and a lot of chinese temples and monuments are incorporated into the story. This book is basically one giant adventure.

Serafina's Promise

Serafina's Promise

By Ann E. Burg

I am not usually a big fan of poetry books, but I made a huge exception with Serafina's Promise. 11 year old Serafina has a secret dream that she has only shared with her best friend. She wants to go to school and become a doctor, so she can save little babies like her dead brother. But how could her family ever afford for her to go to school? Or who would help out with the chores? And how could she ever convince Manman to let her go? In Serafina's Promise, Serafina learns more about family, love, and not giving up. Serafina's promise is a really special book. You really feel Serafina's emotions, and want all her wishes to be granted. I loved this book, and hope you read it too. I recommend this book to boys and girls ages 10+.
