BOOK DESCRIPTION
Prairie Lotus is a powerful, touching, multilayered book about a girl determined to fit in and realize her dreams: getting an education, becoming a dressmaker in her father's shop, and making at least one friend.
Acclaimed, award–winning author Linda Sue Park has placed a young half–Asian girl, Hanna, in a small town in America's heartland, in 1880. Hanna's adjustment to her new surroundings, which primarily means negotiating the townspeople's almost unanimous prejudice against Asians, is at the heart of the story. Told from the viewpoint of Hanna, the novel has poignant moments yet sparkles with humor, introducing a captivating heroine whose wry, observant voice will resonate with readers. Afterword.
★ "Fans of the Little House books will find many of the small satisfactions of Laura's stories...here in abundance. Park brings new depth to these well–trodden tales, though, as she renders visible both the xenophobia of the town's white residents, which ranges in expression from microaggressions to full–out assault, and Hanna's fight to overcome it with empathy and dignity.... Remarkable." ––Kirkus, STARRED review
