Book Synopsis The Serpent's Children by : Laurence Yep
Book excerpt: When the villagers call Cassia and her brother "the serpent's children", they mean it as an insult. But to Cassia it is an honor, for legend says that once a serpent sets her mind on something, she never gives up. Set in 19th-century China, during a time of famine, violence, and the threats of the Manchurian government, this novel by the author of Dragon's Gate tells a compelling story of a young girl's struggle to survive.
