Sea Glass

A Sharp Summary about Sea Glass Sea Glass is about a kid named Craig Chin who lives in San Francisco's Chinatown and is trying to fit in with this New World he has entered after moving from China. The kids won't accept him though and they call him names like Buddha Boy and the fat kid. His father tries to help encourage him by saying things like "Any Chinese person has to try twice as hard as any western person". His uncle is the only person who really understands Craig's situation. His uncle helps by opening a whole New World to him except this time it's the sea world. Craig figures outs that he still has a chance to fit in, so he tried. My opinion is that it is a great book for people still in grade school, secondary school, high school, and up. And is great for people who feel picked on. I give this book 4 out of 5 stars, because it was a slow start. It had a very interresting story once you got started though.
