Overview

When Ming arrives in San Francisco after the long boat journey from China, his older brothers waste no time warning him- "Chinese should not go outside Chinatown." But Ming risks doing just that, and when he meets Patrick, he knows the young Irish boy has a kind heart, and begins a remarkable friendship that brings their two very different communities together.

Illustrated in Chris Soentpiet's richly detailed watercolor paintings, this long-awaited follow-up to the award-winning Coolieshelps to tell the precious, rare story of the first Chinese immigrants and their pursuit of the American Dream.
