Wong's Story

In class we read about a girl named Wong. She was a Chinese girl who was not satisfied with her culture. She wanted to be an "All-American Girl.", because she had books that didn't even deal with her culture, she had American novels to read and that's what interested her. Also another reason why she wanted to be an "All-American Girl", is she was fascinated by the common language know as English, and she tried to learn it in school and she was bad at it, at first. And her brother also inspired Wong the most because Wong's brother was more fanatical about speaking English. So in the end, Wong was relieved that she didn't need to stay in Chinese school. So Wong was finally an "All-American Girl", but at the end she felt sad that that she was one, because she felt like she lost part of her culture.
