Listen, slowly by Thanhha Lai


All Mai wants to do during her summer vacation is hang out at the beach with friends. Instead she is sent to Vietnam with her grandmother. Meeting her extended family for the first time is overwhelming. As Mai begins to understand the importance, for her grandmother, of finding the truth about her grandfather’s disappearance during the Vietnam War, she also comes to appreciate family ties.
