Before his 12th birthday, Philip Jia Guo had already lived in six cities spanning three continents, learned three distinctively different languages, and attended seven schools that had almost nothing in common with one another. On the Move traces his global journey to places as drastically dissimilar as his birthplace in South China, a quaint town in Switzerland, the American Deep South, both the poorest and wealthiest neighborhoods of New York City, and an affluent suburb in Southern California. He poignantly describes his struggles to fit in as a perpetual outsider and his feelings of being constantly forced by circumstances beyond his control to adapt to new environments, schools, languages, and cultures. On the Move interweaves candid narratives of this immigrant boy's unique childhood experiences with critical observations of such hotly contested social issues as race, ethnicity, class, religion, child development, peer group relations, immigration, assimilation, and national identity. This book appeals to anybody who is interested in learning more about the experience of being an immigrant and especially its impact on young children.

兩晚上看完瞭,非常好讀,在瑞士幼兒園遊泳的那一段經曆讓人捧腹。作者雖然反省瞭race的問題,但是對於assimilation的完全贊同,也顯示瞭美國熔爐文化的本質,多元隻是政治正確。 http://www.soc.ucla.edu/faculty/Zhou-Min 這是他媽媽
評分PG的移民經曆很特彆,艱辛大過輕鬆歡樂,大概跟我小時候搬很多次傢一樣,他也是很早就直麵窘迫,失掉瞭安全感,常常獨自一人,麵壁思忖。
評分PG的移民經曆很特彆,艱辛大過輕鬆歡樂,大概跟我小時候搬很多次傢一樣,他也是很早就直麵窘迫,失掉瞭安全感,常常獨自一人,麵壁思忖。
評分genuine,funny,embarrassing,smart,and definitely sociological. as a 'doemstic'immigran,i can relate to the story in many levels.
評分"The best way to arouse curiosity is through censorship". This is an autobiography as well as a parenting book. I give it six stars.
