The Secret Life of Maeve Lee Kwong (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781865087375)

Maeve's safe world is torn apart when her mother dies in a car crash. Adopted by her strict Chinese grandparents and forced to leave Australia, she fights to hold onto the things she loves most--her two best friends, her dancing, and her baby brother Ned. Secretly she pins her hopes on her Irish father, who doesn't even know she exists. From Sydney to Hong Kong to Ireland, Maeve searches for a path to follow and a place to belong. Written with humor and sensitivity, Maeve's journey of self-discovery among her distinct heritage and different cultures is beautifully rendered.
