Teaser Tuesday: Chinese Cinderella

Today's teaser comes from Chinese Cinderella: The True Story of an Unwanted Daughter by Adeline Yen Mah:

"For the first time I realized that adults could be wrong in their judgement of a child. If I tried hard enough to become a princess inside, like Sara Crewe, perhaps I too might one day reverse everyone's poor opinion of me."

This story just breaks my heart. Poor baby.

  1. Every girl should strive to be a princess, whether people treat her like that or not! Sounds like a good one. Here's Mine
