I like how it has a lot of details. For example January is the chinese new year. In the story the grandmother took care of the kids. The grandmother and grandfather had there last fun moments with her untill te father and mother took her back. I like how it feels real like its a true story.

# data[].attributes.body
Its elaborated because there are a lot of characters and it hard to keep track of, for example Bandit, Mother,father,Fourth cousin,grand father, grand mother

# data[].attributes.body
Sixth cousin Wong lives with her family in China. Her father wants her to come to america to live with him. Her grandmother tells her she should have an american name. So they call her Shirley Temple Wong.

My thoughts i am having are why does she need an american name? Also I am wondering how long she lived with her family in China?

this book talked how if you break something you could get in BIG trouble. Also it talked about when bandit had to leave home with her mother to go see her father. And they gave her a name, so she could be known there.

# data[].attributes.body
The event was when they all met up to finally take Shirley home, mom and dad glanced at each other for a few seconds as if they were surprised to see Shirley. It was like the world froze.

Shirley acted like some things were of a different world because she was in a different envireomet with granmother and grandfather. Mom and dads reactioin was that this was normal.

# data[].attributes.body
The event that stands out to me is when Shirley thought she had a wonderful idea to go to the store alone. She had plans to go get father and his friends some more cigarettes. The mother and father both did not like the idea because they knew she didn't know the place well yet. It was all still to new for her. Father had a look of pleased but skeptical but he sensed mother's discomfort so he grabbed for his jacket to go along with her. Shirley spoke up explaining the way and how father showed her the store this morning. She knew once she convinced father mother would not try to change it.

Shirley's interactions with her classmates were important to her because she was new to the school and had no friends yet. She needed to make a friend to feel some what at home again. The interactions tell me that she would do whatever it takes to make a friend. Like the part when she knew it was wrong to go with the other kids to the store for lunch but she went anyway in hopes she would make new friends. It was the best lunch time she ever had even tho she was terrified that Mrs. Rappaport knew what escapade she had done.

in chapter 4, When shirley came to school everybody greeted her with a smile. She wasn't used to what they were doing like winking so since she kept doing it the teacher thought something was wrong with her eyes.
Chapter 5: But in this chapter when shirley Said he poem everybody lauged.

What small moments, details or objects are you noticing?
What do you think the deeper meaning is behind them?

# data[].attributes.body
I am noticing that Shirley does not tattle on people. Even if they're not her friends. In Chapter 3 she did not tell on the children for going to the store at lunch time. Even tho she was with them she could of told on them the next day out of anger for them not becoming her friend. Then in chapter 5 when Mabel used swear words at her and punching her in the eyes she kept quite. Even when her parents kept asking her also taking her to the police station she still didn't tattle. I think the deeper meaning behind this is loyalty. By being trust worthy to her classmates she knows she will make friends and keep them.

# data[].attributes.body
Shirley didn`t want to tattle so she kept it to herself but now her parents are freaking out about her black eyes so they were going to go to the police station i think the deep  meaning to this is that her parents are scared for her and want to find out what happend so they can go to Mables parents and i think the deep meaning to Shirley is that she didnt want to tattle because maybe she thought that Mabel would find out and hurt her more.

# data[].attributes.body
Shirley didn't tattle (Snitch) Because she saw mabel and his/her face said the words "Squeal, your skin will peel.
Tattle, Your bones will rattle" and she didn't want any problems so she didn't snitch

Who are some of the minor character?
Pick one a retell part of the story through their perspective.

# data[].attributes.body
Mabel because the only part she had was when she answered the question about why baseball is americas past time. and mabels answer was because it was a great game and everybody plays and loves it.

# data[].attributes.body
A few minor few characters are Mrs. Rappaport, Mable, Tommy O'Brien, Susie Spencer, Maria Gonzales, Joseph, and Senora Rodriguez. As I went back and read I thought about Senora's perspective. When she received a letter from her little girl Nonnie it made her very sad because she was thinking about how she missed her and couldn't go to visit her. She needed someone to care for home. She once paid a man to do for her house but he was a bad man and stole the rent money. It's been 10 years without her Nonnie. This made her very sad. However Shirley's perspective of this was happy saying she could go because her parents were worthy to look after the house. They both had totally different thoughts about the situation. This pleased Senora and she was smiling again.

Mabel and Ms. Rappaport, and from Ms. Rappaport's perspective she might not like that she has to explain a lot of words to shirley that she would want to know because she is new to the country.
