A book with a true meaning and great story March 27, 2006
4 out of 4 found this review helpful

I have never read a story like this before this is a unique novel. I was really amazed when I read this book its emotional and gripping. You may not get what I'm saying but if you read the book you will see what I mean. It has a sense of adventure and true character it also is losely based on Adeline Yen Mah(The Author). It is sad but it needs to be to be to make the story work. I think anyone who enjoys reading and is 9 and above should enjoy this book. There is another book by Adeline Yen Mah Chinese Cinderella if the name rings a bell you would enjoy this one. Please note you don't have to read the first novel before you read this one. I think personally if you are thinking of buying it you should give it a try. I'm not going to reveal the plot to you but when C.C gets thrown out of her fathers house and takes refuge with grandma Wu, in the martial arts academy, things begin to happen!! A must read book.

Chinese Cinderella and the Secret Dragon Society February 5, 2006
5 out of 5 found this review helpful

This book is truly, truly moving. It is the only book which has ever made me cry and for that it deserves merit. If you have not yet read this book I suggest that you read the first book before you read it, which is called Chinese Cinderella.

The Secret Dragon Society begins when Adeline is chucked out of her home and left to feign for herself. Along her journey, she meets a group of orphaned children under the care of Grandma Wu. She joins the group and there, finds an ancient book which touches her heart. From there, her and her new friends set out to save injured pilots in the second world war. I will not tell you any more because I do not want to spoil the book!

I strongly recommend that you read it.
