Résumé
It's April 1975 and the armies of North Vietnam are pushing into South Vietnam, leaving death and destruction in their wake. In a Saigon orphanage, eight-year-old Long waits and worries. He is a mixed-blood child, the son of a white American father and a Vietnamese mother. What kind of future can he have in a country ruled by North Vietnam-America's enemy? His only hope of escaping Saigon is via Operation Babylift-the U.
S. government's rescue effort to airlift children like him out of harm's way. A family in Ohio is waiting to adopt Long. But if he leaves, will he ever see his home and his grandmother again? Award-winning author Andrea Warren -whose own adopted daughter was one of 2, 300 orphans brought to safety through Operation Babylift- shares the true story of Long's journey from war-ravaged Vietnam to his new life in America's heartland, and ultimately to his return to Saigon to make peace with his past. Short DescriptionThe true story of a Vietnam War orphan, and his harrowing rescue from Saigon as part of Operation Babylift.
He was adopted by an American family and as a young adult revisited his native country to make peace with his past.
