Title: Don't waste your time with the book, watch Mulan.
Review: I'm not going to recommend this book to anyone, at least not any of my friends. If you are interested in reading about the Chinese culture go ahead and read it. But if I were you I would just watch the Disney movie Mulan. The following quote from the book is mainly what it is all about, the Chinese woman. "Families are glad to be rid of daughters. Girls are like maggots in rice. It's more profitable to raise geese than daughters." All throughout the book the Chinese women struggle and it is made clear that women aren't valued in their culture. You will all have a better time watching the movie Mulan and you will get the same thing out of the movie that you do from the book, women have to work a lot harder than men do to be respected in their culture. The best part in the book is the second story, White Tiger. It has most of the action in the book and it is just like the movie Mulan. So you should just watch the movie.
