Afterword:

1. What do you learn about Lawrence Yep's reasons for writing Dragonwings?

2. Why do you think the author chose to have Moon Shadow tell the story?

3. Was there anything unexpected in the story?

1. One of the reasons was that they wanted to was to "counter various stereotypes as presented in the media ... not as they really are but as they exist in the mind of White America." (As seen on page 317)They also wanted to show that Chinese Americans are human beings on which America has had a unique effect upon.

2.The author chose to have the fictional character "Moon Shadow" tell the story as they wanted to show how America has had a unique effect on Chinese Americans, and found no better way to tell the story than from the eyes of a recently arrived Chinese boy, and by showing the struggles of his father in following his dream, to show how hard it was for the Chinese Americans in that specific place and time period.

3. There were many unexpected things such as the earthquake and the crash of the plane, but personally, in my opinion, the biggest upset was the return of Black Dog, a vicious side character that seemed most probably dead, and was let the memory of die away until the surprising pop out back in the very end of the book on chapter eleven. It was a shock, I believe, to find that the character the reader had thrown to the side, had come back for his final vengeance.

4. What happens to Black Dog? Do you think he get what he deserves? Explain.

Black dog is found in an alley with a slit throat and his wallet stolen. I feel like he did and didn't deserve it I feel like he deserved it because he threatened someone with a knife and he would stop if they gave him the money but I feel like he didn't deserve it because nobody deserve to die.

neighboring,  Miss. Whitlaw and her nese Rodin. They lived in a house were the had what they needed. They had beds, food, and  essential things they needed. They had grass,tress and a garden in there backyard. The old house was a great place to live they had all that they needed. The new house that they are living in is a barn.

1.What is a meaning of this proverb of Uncle's: "The superior man shares his wealth in adversity"?

The meaning of the proverb "The superior man shares his wealth in adversity", means that anyone that is truly kind would help other people in the middle of danger or misfortune, instead of just staying to the old motto "every man for himself." The superior man helps others even when he himself is in danger, therefore sharing his wealth or good fortune.

2. To where did the people of the Tang move, and why?

The people of Tang moved to any places, starting at Van Ness Avenue, then a parade ground near the entrance to the bay, then a golf course at Presidio, another army base to the east of the Golden Gate, then back to the parade ground where they finally won the same rights to rebuild on their old sites just like the white demons.

3. What is the bad thing that balances the good thing (the Company's friendship with Miss Whitlaw)? Explain the recent event/outcome.

The bad thing that balances out Miss Whitlaw's friendship is that one of her demon neighbors told some mean demon officers about Moon Shadow and father, and forced them to leave, while treating them terribly. Like on page 242, Moon Shadow states "from the way the demon soldiers acted, you would

have thought each of had a knife up his sleeve."

4. Where does Windrider decide to move, and why? How does Moon Shadow feel?

Windrider decides to move to the foothills above Oakland because he wants to continue and live his dream, as after the earthquake, he realizes life is too short. Moon Shadow probably feels really upset that a father he had learned to love is now leaving Moon Shadow for his dream.

The advice that Robin told Moonshadow was that Jack, the biggest boy in the school, was afraid of getting hit in the nose, and that he was scared at the sight of blood.  This advice helped Moonshadow because everytime he passed Jack, Jack would charge and beat up Moonshadow and after hearing this advice Moonshadow just punched him in the nose and in the end Jack says "Say, you know you're alright, Chinaboy.
4) Why does Miss Whitlaw say, "We see the same things and yet find different truths"?
They originate from different places and cultures so they know the same things such as constellations, but with different backstories and meanings. This means that Miss Whitlaw understands that they're all equal and other people don't understand the same.

1. What happened between Father and Black Dog, and what was the end result?

1. Since Black Dog was hurting Moon Shadow, which was Windrider's son, he finally had enough of Black Dog. Though, it was shown they never got along anyway, as said by Tiger General on page 114. Father ended up going to the place where Black Dog was staying, (at the Sleepers,) with Moon Shadow following behind Father secretly.  Father fought Black Dog with a hatchet, while Black Dog fought Father with a sword. With Moon Shadow's help in taking out a man who was trying to shoot at father out of the fight, and with Father's finishing blow in the back after possibly fatally wounding Black Dog in the chest, the fight was over. Tiger General, who watched the fight take place, warned them that though he did not care about the two fools, some people would resent the death of a brother, no matter what kind of a fool that he was, and for the sake of safety, should probably get out of town for a while. Father decides that Moon Shadow and he shall go to live among the demons at a demonnesses' house that will probably let them stay, and work for the demon Mister Alger, who manages apartment houses. Father could clean and fix things in the house. In conclusion, the end result is that Black Dog is injured, possibly fatally, and since in the fight Father ended up killing another brother who was trying to shoot him with a gun, they must now move away from the Tang's people town to live with the demons, as many people may have a vengeance against father killing one of the brothers.

2. Explain the effect of killing on the lives of Moon Shadow and his Father.

2. The effect that killing had on the lives of Moon Shadow and Father, is that now that they have killed one of the brothers, many other people may have a vengeance on Moon Shadow and Father now. Some people could even end up trying to kill them, or steal from them, so they must move away from the Tang's people's town, for at least long enough for people to simmer down. This means they must move into the land of the demons, which may be less dangerous for Moon Shadow and Father.

3. Why is the chapter called "Windrider's Claws"?

3. The chapter is called "Windrider's Claws", because we already know that Windrider already believes he will be a dragon one day, and had a dream about dragons. But it is called Windrider's Claws because it is a bring back to comparing Windrider as a dragon, and just like Windrider says on page 110, "dragons have claws too." This chapter is also mainly about protecting Moon Shadow from Black Dog, and Father having enough of Black Dog. Moon Shadow is also worried about Windrider being reborn as a dragon if Windrider acts like a criminal, and Father brings up the point that dragons were given claws to protect themselves and others. This goes back to the title because Windrider uses his claws, to protect Moon Shadow, hence the name Windrider's claws. (Plus, the name sounds awesome!)

Grandmother describes the land of the Golden Mountain on page 8 as a place where demons roam and are evil to the Tang people. She describes the demons as evil creatures who use clubs as big as trees, and would beat the the Tang people for no good reason, but if you do the work they tell you to do you can get a little of their gold.
