Bring Your Heart: A Journey to Freedom introduces readers to Mei, a Vietnamese immigrant whose journey to the United States is filled with family, hardships, and hope. Dylan Luong weaves a tale that takes readers from South Vietnam to Lancaster, Pennsylvania.
The journey begins at the end of the Vietnam War when Mei, a shy teenager, is forced out of the only home she has ever known. Her family escapes the conflict, but the perils they face along the way define who Mei will become as a person and as a parent. The tale is told through the eyes of an adult Mei, who recounts her journey in a bedtime story to her son Kevin as he grows up. Through their eyes, we gain a deeper appreciation for the hardships that immigrants face as they journey to a new land and make it their home. Through it all, love continuously wins.
Bring Your Heart invites us on Mei's journey into the unknown. Along the way, we learn what Mei loses, but even more importantly, what she gains.
