I have just read three chapters in “A Free Life” of Ja Hin, but I feel that this book is very interesting and exciting. First three chapters this book told about the family who left from China and moved to the US to start a new life with a lot of difficulties. Nan is a husband of Pingping. They moved to American first, and after that Taotao also went there. Taotao really missed his hometown, aunt, uncle, grandparents in China. He cried a lot and surprised with a lot of new things in the US. At first time, they didn’t have a private house and a lot of money, so they must live in Masefield’s house and do housework for them. Taotao seemed to be adapting quickly, but sometimes he got homesick, cried and made his parents worried and sad. With many challenges, they tried their best to overcome and make their life better. Although there are sadness and worriless, but maybe they have a better life than living in China and do everything that they wanted.
After reading these chapters, I feel that my situations and their situations have a little same. I also live far from my country, hometown, family and friends. I often get homesick and miss everybody. When starting a new life, I get a lot of new troubles like their family. However, I think that if we try their best to adapt with new life, I believe that we will get the successful and free life that we wish.
