SUMMARY
Shirley Temple Wong sails from China to America with a heart full of dreams.Her new home is Brooklyn, New York.

It is 1947, and Jackie Robinson, star of the Brooklyn Dodgers, is everyone's hero. Jackie Robinson is proving that a black man, the grandson of a slave, can make a difference in America and for Shirley as well, on the ball field and off, America becomes the land of opportunity.Lord, Bette Bao is the author of 'In the Year of the Boar and Jackie Robinson' with ISBN 9780060240035 and ISBN 0060240032.
