Speaking Chinese T Anthony Bland

Speaking Chinese is about an American family...about 1st. and 2nd generation Americans. It's about the joys and sorrows of assimilation. Tolly is the typical, troublesome, middle child...you will laugh at him, as well as with him. Oh, he's not the star of the story though you will swear the world revolves around him. Monica, the oldest, has her moments too; like on the plane ride to Belize. In case you're wondering, no, they don't speak Chinese. It's Kriol (Creole)...but to Tolly it's all Chinese. Come and join this family as they learn more than just about language. They learn lessons about forgiveness, love and about some traditions that are good to remember and to keep...
