IN THE YEAR OF THE BOAR AND JACKIE
ROBINSON
By: Bette Bao Lord
IN 1947…
A Chinese girl’s family moves to America two years
after the end of World War II in search of a dream
AN AFRICAN AMERICAN BASEBALL PLAYER HAD
A DREAM OF BREAKING THE RACIAL BARRIER
. BOTH SHIRLEY TEMPLE WONG AND JACKIE
ROBINSON STRUGGLE TO BE ACCEPTED FOR
WHO THEY ARE RATHER THAN THEIR
APPEARANCE
Despite the many obstacles: language
barrier, appearance, cultural heritage and
facing her fears alone, Shirley Temple
Wong was able to make America her new
home.
DESPITE THE INSULTS, DEATH THREATS AND
HIS APPEARANCE JACKIE ROBINSON FACED
HIS FEARS AND TRIUMPHED
IN SPITE OF EVERYTHING THAT HAPPENED
BOTH SUCCEEDED AND MADE AMERICA
THEIR NEW HOME
THIS STORY TAUGHT US THE IMPORTANCE
OF NOT JUDGING A BOOK BY ITS COVER, BUT
INSTEAD GIVING IT A CHANCE
