Summary: It goes without saying that all children believe their parents to be strange. Mine were unusual for a different reason... One boy's parents travel from far-off lands to improve their son's life. But what happens next is unexpected. What does it mean when your parents are different? What shape does love take? And what happens when your parents sacrifice a part of themselves for you? The author reflects on his own migrant parents' sacrifices to create a universal story about what it means to give to those you love. Celebrates parents who embrace a hard life for themselves in the hope of a better life from their children.
